Product Description

Human Liver Ferritin is a protein complex that plays a crucial role in iron storage within the liver. Belonging to the ferritin family, it is responsible for maintaining iron homeostasis by sequestering excess iron and releasing it when needed. With a molecular weight of approximately 450 kDa, this protein is composed of 24 subunits that form a hollow sphere capable of accommodating up to 4,500 iron atoms. Its precise regulation and efficient iron storage capacity make Human Liver Ferritin an important component in maintaining iron balance within the body.

If your product is within its expiration period, and has not performed according to expectations, fill out the sample return form. Return the unused sample frozen, with the auto generated packing slip to the address on the instructions. You will receive a full refund along with a replacement of the unused portion (inclusive of the failed test). Damages do not cover any additional costs incurred for failed experimentation. 

Reconstituted store at -20°C or -80°C.We recommend that single use aliquots are prepared to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
