Extra Details:: Human Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor is a mitogen that stimulates cell growth for such cells as fibroblasts, endothelial cells, myoblasts, glial cells and smooth muscle cells. Basic FGF is composed of 146aa residues (pro 1 to ser 146), and is 55% homologous with acidic FGF, including two conserved cysteine residues. Source: yeast Biological Activity: The mitogenic activity of human basic FGF is identical to natural bovine basic FGF, as measured by stimulation of 3H-thymidine incorporation into human foreskin fibroblast cells. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
