Recombinant Human TGF-β1
CHO-expressed recombinant human TGF-β1, ≥97% pure with endotoxin below 0.1 EU/µg. A 25 kDa disulfide-linked homodimer of two 112-residue chains, and a potent regulator of proliferation, differentiation, and ECM production.

I Overview
Bioactivity is defined by an ED50 of 0.04–0.2 ng/mL in the murine HT-2 T-cell growth-inhibition assay. Lyophilized from sterile-filtered 4 mM HCl, 0.2 µm filtered; carrier-free by default; a 0.1% BSA carrier option is also available. The acidic formulation is deliberate: mature TGF-β1 aggregates and adsorbs to plastic near neutral pH, so it is held below pH 4 until dilution.

| Handling | |
| Reconstitution | Reconstitute with the diluent and volume specified on the vial label and lot datasheet. Mix gently; do not vortex. Dilute into assay buffer or medium as needed. |
| Storage | Store the unopened lyophilized vial at the temperature printed on the label and lot datasheet. After reconstitution, aliquot and store as directed; avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Stability | Stability is lot- and formulation-specific. Follow the expiry and reconstituted-storage limits on the vial label and lot datasheet. |
