Notes

Lot Specific Information:
Given endotoxin and ED50 values are acceptance criteria standards. For lot specific values, please contact technical support.

Detailed Reconstitution:
Centrifuge vial before opening. Suspend the product by gently pipetting the recommended solution down the sides of the vial. DO NOT VORTEX. Allow several minutes for complete reconstitution. For prolonged storage, dilute to working aliquots in a 0.1% BSA solution, store at -80C and avoid repeat freeze thaws.

Expiration Date:
12 months from date of receipt when stored at -20C to-80C as supplied. 1 month when stored at 4C after reconstituting as directed. 3 months when stored at -20C to -80C after reconstituting as directed.

Background

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a polypeptide involved in the regulation of growth and differentiation of sympathetic and some sensory neurons, and is composed by 3 types of subunits (alpha, beta and gamma) that specifically interact to form a 7S, 130 kDa molecular weight complex. The beta-NGF subunit is a secreted protein that forms a homodimer before being incorporated into the NGF complex. The human and mouse sequences are very similar and mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, type 5 (HSAN5). Deregulation of its expression has been associated with allergic rhinitis.
