General description

Insulin Like Growth Factor-II (IGF-II) is a polypeptide growth factor which stimulates the proliferation of a wide range of cell types. Human IGF-II is a 7.5 kDa protein containing 67 amino acid residues.
Product Source: E.coli

Application

For most in vitro applications, IGF-II exerts its biological activity in the concentration range of 0.5 to 25.0 ng/mL. Responding cells are (partial list): Bone, muscle cells.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Physical form

Lyophilized powder with no additives

Preparation Note

The lyophilized IGF-II, though stable at room temperature, is best stored at -20°C. After a quick spin, reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. This solution can be diluted into other buffered solutions. Reconstituted IGF-II should be stored in undiluted aliquots at -20°C for up to six months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Analysis Note

Specific Activity: Chemicon′s Human IGF-II is fully biologically active when compared to standards.The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using FDC-P1 cells is ≤ 2.0 ng/mL
