Introduction: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a hormone that stimulates division of epidermal and other cells. EGF (FITC) conjugate, which remains fully active after conjugation and can be used to study EGF receptor in cells. Fluorescently labeled EGF has enabled researchers to investigate receptor-membrane interactions, study receptor distribution, calculate rate constants for the interaction of EGF with its receptor, and more. Conjugation: The EGF was conjugated with FITC under optimum conditions, and unreacted FITC was removed. The number of fluorophore molecules on each EGF molecule is 1.0. Recommended Usage: Fluorescence is typically monitored using a flow cytometer, fluorescence microscope, or fluorimeter. For immunofluorescent staining, the recommended use of this reagent is ≤ 0.5µg per million cells in 100 µl staining volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for different cell lines.
