Active Recombinant Human FGF8 Protein

• Cat.No.: FGF8-771H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human FGF8a (NP_149355.1) (Gln23-Arg204) was expressed with an initial Met.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: Non
• Protein Length: 23-204 a.a.
• Predicted N Terminal: Met
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile 20 mM Tris, 500 mM NaCl, pH 8.5, 5% ~ 8% trehalose and mannitol.
• Bio-activity: Measured in a cell proliferation assay using BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.8-3.3 μg/mL.
• Molecular Mass: The recombinant human FGF8a consists 183 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 21.3 kDa.
• Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
• Purity: >95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.
• Stability: Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -70ºC.
• Storage: Store it under sterile conditions at -20ºC~-70ºC. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Reconstitution: It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.25 ug/ul. Centrifuge the vial at 4℃ before opening to recover the entire contents.
