Human Transferrin is a crucial component for the cultivation of mammalian cellsin vitro. Human Transferrin is critical for long-term cells growthin vitro. Human Transferrin is used as detoxificant in media by binding contaminating metal ions. Human Transferrin is often used as a nutrient in fermentation media for recombinant protein and biopharmaceutical production. Additional common uses of Human Transferrin are molecular weight, affinity purification of anti-human transferrin antibodies and also as receptor mediated transfection of molecules such as DNA, into cells.
The protein (1mg/ml) was lyophilized with no additives.
FDA approved Plasma from each donor has been tested and found negative for antibody to HIV-1, HIV-2, HCV, HBSAG, HBc, ALT and Syphilis.
Viral inactivation by pasteurization (60oC for 10 hours) has been validated using three different test viruses, with removal of 8-14.5 logs of virus documented.
The purification process has also been found to remove significant additional quantities of virus.
Sterile Filtered Pink lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Purity as determined by HPLC is 100%.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Holo Transferrin in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Holo Transferrin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored at 4oC.
