Cytokines and Growth Factors

Q: What does “carrier-free” mean?

Carrier-free proteins contain no stabilizers (e.g., BSA), reducing interference in sensitive assays and enabling precise mass-based dosing. Ideal for SPR, BLI, and cell-based functional studies.

Q: Which expression system should I choose?

HEK293/CHO: Native folding, glycosylation, and disulfide bonds — ideal for receptor-binding and functional studies.E. coli: High yield and cost-effective, best for structural screening.Insect/Yeast: Balanced PTMs with good scalability.

Q: What endotoxin level is recommended for immune cell assays?

≤0.1 EU/µg is the standard for immune cell culture, T-cell expansion, and in vivo studies. Every lot ships with LAL-verified endotoxin data on the CoA.

Q: How to reconstitute lyophilized proteins?

Use sterile, endotoxin-free buffer. Gently swirl — avoid vortexing. Aliquot into single-use volumes and store at -80°C to prevent freeze-thaw damage.

Q: Are these proteins RUO or GMP-grade?

Unless explicitly labeled, all products are Research Use Only (RUO). For GMP-grade requirements, contact our team for custom manufacturing options.

Scalable & Reliable From µg to mg quantities with consistent lead times. Global cold-chain shipping with dry-ice packaging.

How to Select the Right Product

Application: Choose carrier-free for sensitive bioassays (e.g., CAR-T expansion, organoid culture, SPR). His-tag works best for pull-down and purification workflows.
Expression System: Use HEK293/CHO for native glycosylation and disulfide bonds; E. coli for cost-effective high-throughput screening; insect/yeast when moderate PTMs are sufficient.
Tag & Format: His-tag for IMAC purification and binding studies; Fc-chimera for enhanced avidity and half-life; biotinylated for immobilization on streptavidin surfaces.
Endotoxin: Match your assay tolerance — ≤0.1 EU/µg is recommended for immune cell culture and in vivo studies. Always verify via the lot-specific CoA.
