Why this one

Native IGF-1 gets captured by binding proteins almost immediately in culture. The Long R3 modifications reduce that affinity substantially, which is what makes extended-activity experiments possible at all.

Used in IGF-1 receptor signalling assays, proliferation and differentiation studies, and binding protein interaction work. A protein rather than a short peptide — handle it accordingly.

Lot-specific identity, purity, net content and endotoxin figures are stated on the certificate of analysis supplied with each vial.

Handling

Store sealed vials at 2–8°C for short-term use, or at −20°C for long-term storage, and protect from light. Reconstitute with the diluent your protocol specifies; bacteriostatic water is the common choice where a vial will be entered more than once.

Allow refrigerated material to reach room temperature before opening, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles once in solution.

Certificate of analysis

Every lot is tested by an independent ISO-accredited laboratory. The lot number on your vial resolves at the testing laboratory directly, so the purity figure never has to come from the party selling it to you.
