Hu Recom FGF-10 (KGF-2), ACF, 100 µg

Recombinant human FGF-10, also known as Keratinocyte Growth Factor-2 (KGF-2), is supplied by STEMCELL Technologies as a 100 µg vial of Animal Component Free (ACF) protein formulated for stem cell and organoid culture workflows. FGF-10 signals through the FGFR2b receptor and is widely used to support proliferation, branching morphogenesis, and long-term maintenance of epithelial organoids derived from lung, prostate, salivary gland, and intestinal tissues. The ACF manufacturing process eliminates exposure to animal-derived raw materials during production, making the cytokine compatible with xeno-free and defined media systems used in regenerative medicine and developmental biology research. The lyophilized preparation is reconstituted in buffer with carrier protein and added directly to serum-free media to drive expansion of adult stem cell-derived epithelial cultures. Researchers commonly pair FGF-10 with complementary factors such as EGF, Noggin, R-spondin, and Wnt agonists to establish robust, self-renewing organoid lines for disease modeling, drug screening, and tissue engineering studies. Each vial is intended for research use only and should be stored frozen at -20 to -80 degrees C in single-use aliquots to preserve bioactivity across multiple thaw cycles.
