FGFs play important roles in diverse biological functions both in vivo and in vitro; including mitogenesis; cellular migration; differentiation; angiogenesis; and wound healing. Human embryonic stem cell (hESC) cultures require FGF basic (also known as FGF-2 or bFGF) in cell culture media to remain in an undifferentiated and pluripotent state. Thermostable FGF basic was engineered for enhanced stability in culture media; without modification of its biological function. FGF basic is a required component of stem cell culture media for maintaining cells in an undifferentiated state. Because FGF basic is unstable; daily media changes are needed. The thermostable FGF basic that supports a 2-day media change schedule; so no media changes are required over a weekend. This thermostable FGF basic was more stable than FGF basic in biochemical studies; and maintained cell growth; pluripotency and differentiation potential with a 2-day feeding schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConcentration\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eActivity\u003c\/b\u003e: Not validated for activity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSequence\u003c\/b\u003e: Met1-Ser155\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePurity\u003c\/b\u003e:  \u0026gt; 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e: Supplied as a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM Tris-HCl, 200mM NaCl, pH 7.5.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReconstitution\u003c\/b\u003e: Not Applicable\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEndotoxin\u003c\/b\u003e:  \u0026lt; 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCalculated MW\u003c\/b\u003e: 17.2 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eObservedMW\u003c\/b\u003e: 17 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GeneBio Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47982503198820,"sku":"PKSH033503","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/8588\/9636\/files\/no_image_default_image-jpeg_3339e3b0-3c06-4c24-b568-277829cf59c5.jpg?v=1772388373","url":"https:\/\/www.genebiosystems.com\/en-gb\/products\/recombinant-human-fgf-2-fgf-basic-fgfb-protein","provider":"GeneBio ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
