  • Physical form description
    Lyophilized from a sterile solution containing 10 mM Sodium phosphate buffer and 75 mM NaCl.
  • Reconstitution Instructions
    When reconstituting the product, gently pipet and wash down the sides of the vial to ensure full recovery of the protein into solution. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized product with sterile H₂O at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml, which can be further diluted into other aqueous solutions.
  • Background Information
    Fibroblast Growth Factor 4 (FGF-4) is a growth factor predominantly expressed during embryonic development, playing a key role in limb development. In culture, FGF-4 has been shown to be an important growth factor for fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Human FGF-4 shares high homology and cross-reactivity with the mouse protein. Recombinant human FGF-4, produced in E.coli, is a non-glycosylated protein containing 177 amino acids and having a total molecular mass of 19 kDa.
  • Usage
    For Research Use Only! Not to be used in humans
  • Properties
    Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.
