| Catalog # | F4210-10B | | Source | Recombinant corresponding to 140aa from human Fibroblast Growth Factor expressed in E. coli. | | Molecular Weight | ~15.8kD | | Activity | ED50 <10 ng/ml ( > 1 x 105 units/mg). Biological activity is determined by measuring the FGF-a dose dependent stimulation of 3H-thymidine incorporation into BaF3 cell expressing FGF receptors. For most in vitro applications, a concentration range of 1.0-50 ng/ml is recommended. FGF-a is a heparin-binding protein which stimulates the proliferation of mesenchymal cells, neuroectodermal cells and endothelial cells. | | Endotoxin | 0.1ng/ug | | Storage and Stability | Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with Tris, pH 7.4, BSA. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. | | Molecular Weight | ~15.8kD | | Source | E. coli | | Purity | ~95% (SDS-PAGE, HPLC) | | Concentration | Not determined | | Form | Supplied as a lyophilized powder in PBS, pH 7.4. Reconstitute with 5mM Tris, pH 7.4, 0.1% BSA to 0.25-0.5 mg/ml. | | | Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
