Data sheet

Formulation
The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Fibroblast Growth Factor Basic in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Purity
Greater than 98.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Description
Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 Human Recombinant (FGF-2) produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 154 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 17.2kDa.The FGF-b is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Protein Background
Basic fibroblast growth factor is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell
Expression host
Escherichia Coli.
Synonyms
Prostatropin, HBGH-2, HBGF-2, FGF-2, FGF-b.
Reagent Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Stability
Lyophilized Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FGF-b should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is
