Lipoproteins, Very Low Density, Human Plasma, Suitable for Cell Culture

Cat. No.: np001032

GRADE & PURITY ≥95%

Overview

Endotoxin Level: <=10 EU/mg by Pyrosate LAL clot test 

Sterility Testing: Using Turbidity Growth/No Growth as the Indicator
Thioglycollate Broth (THIO) for yeast and mold growth
Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) for bacterial growth 

In a normal fasting individual, VLDL concentrations range from 0.5 - 2.0 g/L. VLDL transports triglycerides synthesized by the liver to sites of energy storage and utilization. 

Purity: single arc by IEP against antisera to whole human serum. Essentially free of other plasma lipoproteins and chylomicrons as determined by electrophoresis using a SPIFE Vis Cholesterol gel kit for lipids and Coomassie Blue for proteins. >=95% of total lipoprotein content by electrophoresis. 

Prepared from fresh, non-frozen plasma shown to be non reactive for HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HBc, and negative for anti-HIV 1 & 2 by FDA-required tests.

Density: 0.95-1.006 g/ml; Composition: 88-95% lipid, 5-12%
