Powered by people, fly by design. Future Fields’ Recombinant Human FGF2 is a serum-free sustainable growth factor ready to support your life-changing research in stem cells, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, organoids, cellular agriculture, and beyond.
Future Fields Recombinant Human FGF2 (> 95 % purity) produced with the EntoEngine™ expression platform fulfills the needs of FGF2 requirements in cell culture across a variety of cell lines, including but not limited to pluripotent and multipotent cells of various origins.
Our purified Recombinant Human FGF2 is a high-performing, bioactive, drop-in replacement for commercially available recombinant FGF2 in driving proliferation of cells that express FGF-receptors. It has been confirmed to activate the FGF receptors via Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) and cell proliferation and activation studies on NIH 3T3 lines.
Our purified Recombinant Human FGF2 comes as lyophilized powder, which when reconstituted is ready to be supplemented into cell culture media.

Description
FGF2 is a member of the FGF family (one of 23). Human FGF2 is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 155 amino acids with molecular mass of 17.3 kDa. The FGF family of proteins drive broad mitogenic and cell survival activities including cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis. FGF2 binds to the FGF receptor (FGFR) members, and activates downstream signaling proteins, like ERK1/2.

Sustainability
Future Fields' growth factors are the first in the world to obtain the ACT Environmental Impact Factor Label from My Green Lab. Structured similar to a nutrification facts label, the ACT Label makes it easy for scientists and other biotechnology professionals to choose more sustainable laboratory products.
The ACT Environmental Impact Factor Label was designed to address the need of both scientists and procurement specialists for clear, third-party verified information about the environmental impact of laboratory products. By emphasizing Accountability, Consistency, and Transparency (ACT) around manufacturing, energy and water use, packaging, and end-of-life, the ACT Label highlights Future Fields’ dedication to producing sustainable and environmentally recombinant proteins. Click the ACT labels above for a breakdown of each of the Environmental Impact Factor scores.
1% of your purchase proceeds will go towards environmental initiatives.
Scoring 86/100, we achieved the highest level of My Green Lab certification (Green).
