Useful:

• Description: An ophthalmic formulation of epidermal growth factor (urogastrone) has been launched for stimulation of healing of the corneal epithelium following various corneal diseases.
• Uses: Epidermal Growth Factor, human, animal component free has been used: as a supplement in in LHC-8 medium to culture liver cell lines in the fetal bovine serum (FBS)-Dulbecco′s modified essential medium (DMEM) /F12 medium for primary culture of human glioma cells as an additive in the conditional medium of normal fibroblasts (NFs) to study its effect on the migration and invasion of endometrial cancer (EC) cellsas a component in tumorsphere medium EGF (epidermal growth factor) human has been used in the culture medium for the maintenance of MCF10A cells (human mammary epithelial cells). This product is used as a mitogen, triggering the cell to commence mitosis, in a variety of cell lines. In tissue cultures, EGF acts to reduce or eliminate the requirement for serum and can be used in conjunction with other media additives and hormones.
