Properties

Purity > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin level < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
Storage Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8℃ for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20℃ for 3 months.
Shipping This product is provided as lyophilized powder which is shipped with ice packs.
Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM Tris, 5% sucrose, 0.02% Tween 80, pH 8.0.
Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information
Reconstitution Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.

Background

Fibroblast growth factors (FGF) are a family of heparin-binding secreted proteins that stimulate cell proliferation and differentiation in a wide variety of tissues. FGFs play important roles in diverse biological functions both in vivo and in vitro; including mitogenesis; cellular migration; differentiation; angiogenesis; and wound healing. Human embryonic stem cell (hESC) cultures require FGF basic (also known as FGF-2 or bFGF) in cell culture media to remain in an undifferentiated and pluripotent state. Thermostable FGF basic was engineered for enhanced stability in culture media; without modification of its biological function. FGF basic is a required component of stem cell culture media for maintaining cells in an undifferentiated state. Because FGF basic is unstable; daily media changes are needed. The thermostable FGF basic that supports a 2-day media change schedule; so no media changes are required over a weekend. This thermostable FGF basic was more stable than FGF basic in biochemical studies; and maintained cell growth; pluripotency and differentiation potential with a 2-day feeding schedule.
