Description

Descrição geral

Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) is a polypeptide growth factor which stimulates the proliferation of a wide range of epidermal and epithelial cells. Human EGF is a 6.2 kDa protein containing 53 amino acid residues.

Product Source: E.coli

Aplicação

For most in vitro applications, EGF exerts its biological activity in the concentration range of 0.5 to 25.0 ng/mL. Responding cells are (partial list): Epidermal mesothelial cells.

Ligação

Replaces: GF001

forma física

Lyophilized from sterile filtered 10 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.5, containing no additives.

Armazenamento e estabilidade

The lyophilized EGF, though stable at room temperature, is best stored desiccated at -20°C. Reconstitute with water to a concentration of 0.1 - 1 mg/mL. This solution can be diluted into other buffered solutions and stored at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for future use. Reconstituted EGF should be maintained at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to one year.

Nota de análise

Specific Activity: Human EGF is fully biologically active when compared to standards.The ED50, as determined by its dose-dependent mitogenic activity on BALB/c 3T3 cells, is ≤ 0.1 ng/mL
