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. Sterile-filtered solution in 4 mM HCl, 0.2 µm filtered. Supplied frozen; 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.
