EGF Long

Alternative Names: EGF, URG, Urogastrone

Epidermal growth factor plays a crucial role in cell differentiation and growth, acting as a powerful stimulant for various types of cells. The precursor of EGF is thought to be a membrane-bound molecule that is enzymatically cleaved to produce a 53-amino acid peptide hormone that promotes cell division. EGF is known for promoting the growth of epidermal, epithelial, and some fibroblast cells both in living organisms and in lab settings. Long EGF, a synthetic version of Human EGF, has been developed to mimic the effects of native EGF and is used as a supplement in therapeutic cell culture applications.

Storage Instruction

Lyophilized EGF Long although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution EGF Long 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.

Sample Prep Instruction

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized EGF Long in sterile 100mM AcOH (acetic Acid) not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
