Biological activity
The ED₅₀ of human FGF-2 is determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of mouse BALB/c 3T3 cells and is typically less than 3 ng/ml.
Molecular Weight
Human FGF-2 is a 17.2 kDa recombinant protein
Shipping
Gel pack
Appearance
Recombinant FGF-2 is available as a lyophilized powder
Physical form description
FGF-2 protein is lyophilized from a 1 mg/ml solution of 5 mM Tris pH 7.6 + 150 mM NaCl
Reconstitution Instructions
Reconstitute human FGF-2 in 5 mM Tris, pH 7.6 to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers
Description
Basic proteins pH>7 are often produced recombinant and shouldn’t be precipitated by formic acid buffer.
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.
