Cat#:RP-1996M;Product Name:Recombinant Mouse VEGF Protein, Sf9;Synonym:Vascular endothelial growth factor A, VEGF-A, Vascular permeability factor, VPF, VEGF, MGC70609.;Description:Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Mouse Recombinant produced in Sf9 insect cells is a double, glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 164 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 48 kDa. The VEGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.;Source:Baculovirus Sf9 cells.;Purity:Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.;Bioactivity:The ED50 range, determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) (measured by 3H-thymidine uptake) is 1-2 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 1x106 Units/mg.;Formulation:The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with no additives.;Stability:Recombinant Proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70℃;Reconstitution:It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-Sf9 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.;Storage:Lyophilized Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Sf9 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution VEGF-Sf9 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.;
