Recombinant Human Apo-Transferrin Protein _ 92289ES

Transferrin (TF) mediates the transport of iron from plasma to cells. It is not only involved in the regulation of respiration, cell proliferation and the immune system, but also has antioxidant and bactericidal functions. It is widely used in cell culture. Transferrin exists in three forms: apoferric (not bound to iron ions), saturated iron (bound to two molecules of iron ions) and partially saturated iron. Transferrin can bind to specific cell surface receptors and be internalized by endocytosis. After entering the cell, iron is released into the cell, while apoferric transferrin is released to the outside of the cell by exocytosis without being degraded. Transferrin can deliver iron to cells in a safe and effective form.

This product is a recombinant human transferrin expressed and purified from Pichia pastoris using genetic recombination technology. It does not contain animal-derived components, has no risk of blood-borne virus infection, and has high batch-to-batch stability. This product is apoferric transferrin, which is suitable for self-iron-rich culture media and is often used in animal cell culture.

Product Properties

Shipping and Storage

This product should be stored at 2~8℃ for 2 years. Keep in a dry and airtight container away from light and moisture.

Reconstitution

Generally, PBS or other suitable solvents are used to dissolve transferrin powder into a storage solution at room temperature with a concentration of 0.5-2.0 mg/ml, and then filtered with a sterile filter membrane. The filtrate can be stored at 2-8°C under sterile conditions for 30 days.

Cautions

1.Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

2.For your safety and health, please wear lab coats and disposable gloves for operation.

3. For research use only.
