663 Fibronectin (human) 5 mg

Fibronectin is a major protein found in human plasma that plays an important role in wound healing and embryonic development. The important property of fibronectin to mediate cell attachment is used in vitro to create more physiologically relevant surfaces for culturing cells. Addition of fibronectin is especially beneficial to promote cell attachment in serum-free media.

Fibronectin is a major protein found in human plasma and is purified by affinity chromatography. It is then lyophilized (from 2.5 ml of buffer (150 mM NaCl, 10 mM sodium phosphate pH 7.5) to ensure stability in storage and during shipping. Purity 95% (SDS-PAGE - double band 220 kDa)

Fibronectin is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon arrival store dry at -20°C or lower. Lyophilized product is moisture-sensitive. Reconstituted and sterile-filtered product can be stored for 1 month at +2...8°C

Reconstitution of lyophilized fibronectin is done with 5 ml of warm (37°C) PBS . Incubate at 37°C for 3 hours, occasionally inverting the vial. Do not vortex. Reconstituted solution contains 5 mg of soluble fibronectin and a minor quantity of insoluble fibronectin aggregate. Filter slowly through prewetted 0.2 um membrane filter. Concentration 1 mg/ml of fibronectin corresponds to A280 - 1.3

Amount 5 mg
