BHE is obtained from the extraction of fresh frozen bovine hypothalami in saline solution using a modified protocol. The hypothalami are collected from USDA inspected facilities and found free of contagious diseases. Concentration 10 mg/ml in NaCl, with trace amounts of streptomycin sulfate. Sterile filtered.
Product Use: Recommended concentration range: 5-100 µg/ml. The final working concentration, however, should be optimized for individual cell type and culture conditions. Note: Color may vary between lots and lipoprotein precipitates may be present. This does not affect the biological activity. BHE is for research use only. It is not approved for human or animal use, or for application in in vitro diagnostic procedures.
Storage: Store BHE between -20°C and -80°C until ready for use. Aliquot to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Shipping: Dry ice.
