Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Biological Activity
Description
FGF-8b Protein, Human/Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived FGF-8b protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-His tag.
Background
FGF-8b plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell migration. It is required for normal brain, eye, ear, and limb development during embryogenesis. Additionally, FGF-8b is essential for the normal development of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal system (by similar: PubMed:16384934, PubMed:16597617, PubMed:8663044). It also functions in neurite outgrowth in hippocampal cells (by similar: PubMed:21576111).

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
