Product Specification

MW:	~26kDa; homodimer.
CAS NUMBER:	93828-24-6
SOURCE/HOST:	Isolated from mouse submaxillary glands by a modification of the procedure described by T. Darling, et al.; Cell Culture Meth. Mol. Cell Biol. 4, 79 (1984).
QUANTITY:	mNGF 2.5S concentration is estimated spectroscopically from its extinction coefficient and amino acid analysis.
PURITY:	≥98% (SDS-PAGE)
FORMULATION:	Lyophilized.
RECONSTITUTION:	Reconstitute in sterile water or DMEM at a concentration of at least 10µg/ml and store at -80°C before use. Medium with mNGF cannot be reused due to mNGF degradation.
BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY:	mNGF 2.5S was bioassayed for neurotrophic activity using the rat pheochromocytoma cell PC12 cultures over a period of 7 - 14 days. The neurotrophic activity is in the range of 0.5-50ng/ml. The recommended concentration to be used in vitro for maintenance of sympathetic and sensory nerve cultures is 50ng/ml medium [1].
SHIPPING:	SHIPPED ON BLUE ICE
LONG TERM STORAGE:	-20°C
USE/STABILITY:	Stable for 2-3 weeks when stored at room temperature. After reconstitution, stable for up to 1 week when stored at +4°C and for 4-6 weeks at -80°C.
HANDLING:	Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. After opening, prepare aliquots and store at -80°C.
