We routinely use BSA-free anti-5His mAb from QIAGEN, and it works just fine (at least using media and lysates of both insect and mammalian cells):

Subject: [ccp4bb] Off-topic His-Antibody
Are there any good antibodies for His-tags on the market. I have never used one and I heard several stories that they were poor and not worth the money, over the past few years. The only post I could find on the BB was from 2008. Have His-Antibodies improved or are they still rubbish.
