Purity:
> 98 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.
Biological Activity:
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine balb/c 3T3 cells is less than 10 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 × 105 IU/mg in the presence of 10 μg/ml of heparin.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation:
Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 700 mM NaCl, with 0.02 % Tween-20.
Endotoxin:
Less than 0.1 EU/µg of rMuFGF-17 as determined by LAL method.
Reconstitution:
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile PBS to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Stability & Storage:
Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied.
- 1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
- 3 months, -20 to -70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Usage:
This material is offered by Creative Biomart for research, For research and further manufacturing use only.
background:
FGF-17 is a member of the FGF superfamily of heparin-binding mitogenic molecules characterized by the presence of a core, 120 amino acid (aa) beta-trefoil structure. The mRNA of FGF-17 was found in midgestation of embryo and multiple adult tissues, and is preferentially expressed in specific sites, such as embryonic brain, developing skeleton and arteries.
For R&D and Further Manufacturing ONLY.
