Supplier Product No.: 009-f01-c26-0100

Supplier: Rockland

Purpose: Human Epidermal Growth Factor Recombinant Protein (Animal Free)

Purification: Epidermal Growth Factor (EDF) is produced with no animal-derived raw products, animal free equipment and animal free protocols. Purity was determined to be greater than 95% as determined by analysis by HPLC, UV-Spectroscopy at 280nm, and by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE.

Purity: 95,00%

Endotoxin Level: Measured by LAL is typically ≤ 1 EU/μg protein.

Grade: Animal-Free

Biological Activity Comment: The activity is determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of murine BALB/c 3T3 cells and is typically between 20-100 pg/mL.

Alternative Name: EGF (EGF Products)

Background:

Synonyms: Urogastrone, URG

Background: Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) is a growth factor that stimulates the proliferation of epithelial and epidermal cells. EGF family members are characterized by three intramolecular disulfide bonds and can bind to four different receptor tyrosine kinases known as EGFR/ErbB1, ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4. Recombinant human EGF is a single, non-glycosylated protein containing 53 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 6.2 kDa.
