Application

LONG®EGF is a recombinant analog of human epidermal growth factor (EGF) that provides a potent and cost-effective mitogen for cell culture applications. LONG®EGF is ideal for both research and large-scale culture systems utilizing serum-free or low-level serum applications. It is effective in a variety of fibroblast and endothelial cell types and also acts synergistically with LONG®R3IGF-I (Catalog No. 85580C) to produce extremely potent results in cell culture. LONG®EGF is produced in a patented E. coli expression system free of animal-derived components.

Analysis Note

The biological activity is measured by the stimulation of protein synthesis in L6 myoblasts
