Carrier Free
CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.
In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: Caronte
Chicken Caronte, the ortholog of mammalian Cerberus, is a member of the Cerberus/DAN family of secreted glycoproteins. There are at least 5 Dan Domain (DAND) family members including DAN (DAND1), Gremlin/Drm (DAND2), PRDC (Protein Related to Dan and Cerberus; DAND3), Cerberus (DAND4), and Coco (DAND5). Caronte is expressed in the left paraxial mesoderm and is the molecule responsible for transducing left-sided positional information from the node to the periphery of the lateral plate mesoderm (LPM) during chicken embryonic development. Caronte functions as a BMP antagonist, inducing Nodal and downstream genes in the LPM by interfering with the repressive activity of bilaterally-produced BMPs. In addition, antagonism of BMPs by Caronte induces the expression of the Lefty gene in the midline. Caronte binds both BMP-4 and BMP-7 in immunoprecipitation experiments. Recombinant chicken Caronte preparations from R&D Systems have been shown to bind BMP-4 in a functional ELISA and induce heart reversals in Xenopus embryos.
