DATA SHEET:recombinant MURINE Insulin Like Growth Factor I

-Insulin Like Growth Factor-I (IGF-I) is a polypeptide growth factor which stimulates the proliferation of a wide range of cell types including muscle, bone, and cartilage tissue. This recombinant MURINE IGF-I is a 7.6 kDa protein containing 70 amino acids.

Catalog#: RDI-2519

Package Size: 50 micrograms $231.00  $219.0/package 2+

                      Mini-Pack: cat#RDI-2519p $94.00/10ug            -inquire for custom sizes/bulk packaging


Supplied: Lyophilized protein with no additives

Source: E. Coli

Purity: >97% by SDS-Page analysis and HPLC analysis. Endotoxin less than 0.1ng per ug (1EU/ug) of IGF-I.

Reconstitution: The lyophilized material is soluble in water and most aqueous buffers. The lyophilized powder should be reconstituted in sterile water to a concentration of 0.1- 1mg/ml. Allow to set at least 30 minutes at 4 DEG C, rotate, mix well. If desired, centrifuge for 1-2 minutes at 500-1000 rpm to concentrate material in vial. This solution can be stored at 4 DEG C for up to 1 week or diluted into other buffered solutions or stored at - 20DEG C for future use. For most in-vitro applications, IGF-I exerts itsbiological activity in the range of 0.2 to 20.0 ng/ml.

Storage: The lyophilized powder is stable at room temperature or a few weeks but it is best stored desiccated at -20 DEG C. Reconstituted IGF-I should be stored in working aliquots at -20DEG C. AVOID FREQUENT FREEZE THAW CYCLES.

Reactivity: The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of thymidine uptake by Balb-c 3T3 cells is approx 1.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 1 million units per milligram.
