Bioactivity

Form

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Reconstitution

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CNTF in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Function

CNTF is a survival factor for various neuronal cell types. Seems to prevent the degeneration of motor axons after axotomy.

Shipping Conditions

Available

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CNTF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
