Stability and Reconstitution

Stability and Storage Lyophilized proteins are stable for 1 year from the date of receipt if stored between (-20°C) and (-80°C). Upon reconstitution we recommend that the solution can be stored at (4°C) for short term or at (-20°C) to (-80°C) for long term. Repeated freeze thaw cycles should be avoided with reconstituted products.
Reconstitution Reconstitution is recommended at 0.2 mg/mL using sterile 1x PBS pH 7.4 containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant human serum albumin (HSA).

GMP Quality Policies

HumanKine® GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) recombinant proteins are manufactured and validated in accordance with ISO 13485 quality management system and is compliant with GMP.
Our GMP recombinant proteins are animal component free (ACF), xeno free (XF) and tag free (TF). Read more about these policies here.

Background

Basic Fibroblast growth factor (FGFbasic), also known as bFGF, FGF2, FGF-β or HBGF-2, belongs to the FGF family. FGFbasic is involved in a number of biological processes including embryonic development and differentiation, neuron differentiation, survival, and regeneration, and the proliferation of cells of mesodermal origin and many cells of neuroectodermal, ectodermal, and endodermal origin (PMID 3272178, 3316527). FGFbasic is critical for human embryonic stem cells to remain in an undifferentiated state during cell culture (PMID 15782187).
