Active Native Bovine bFGF

• Cat.No.: FGF2-34B
• Product Overview: FGF-2 Bovine purified from bovine piruitary is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain having a molecular mass of 16kDa.The basic-FGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Specification

• Source: Bovine Pituitary
• Species: Bovine
• Form: The FGF-basic Bovine was lyophilized from a concentrated sterile solution containing 50mM Na2HPO4, pH-7.5, 0.5% HSA.
• Bio-activity: The ED50, calculated by the dose-dependant proliferation of BAF3 cells expressing FGF receptors (measured by 3H-thymidine uptake) is<0.5 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of>
• Purity: Greater than 95.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
• Usage: This product is furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
• Storage: Lyophilized FGF2 Bovine although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FGF-b Bovine Recombinant should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
• Reconstitution: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized FGF-2 Bovine Recombinant in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100μg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
