Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor, also known as bFGF or FGF2, is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family. This growth factor plays a significant role in promoting cell differentiation and proliferation. It also is a highly potent catalyst of DNA synthesis in a variety of cell types from mesoderm and neuroectoderm lineages.
Source
Recombinant BioFera human FGF2 is produced in tobacco leaves.
Biological Activity
Recombinant BioFera FGF2 is comparable to a commercially available, highly purified (>95%) counterpart, as determined by a cell-proliferation assay in 3T3 fibroblast cells.
