- Molecular aliases
- FGF-1; aFGF; ECGF; HBGF-1; FGFA; FGF1; HBGF1; Fibroblast growth factor-1; Fibroblast growth factor 1
- Protein length
- Phe16-Asp155
- Expression system
- E. coli
- Molecular weight
- The protein has a predicted MW of 18.74 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 20-24 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.
- Purity
- > 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE
- Endotoxin
- Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Formulation
- Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
- State
- Lyophilized
- Storage
- -20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3 months after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
- Reconstitution
- Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for detailed instructions.
