- Fibronectin is a large glycoprotein widely distributed in soluble form in the plasma and body fluids.
+ Many cell types synthesize fibronectin.
+ There is also an insoluble form of fibronectin in tissues.
+ Plasma fibronectin is not identical to cellular fibronectin but equally effective in supporting cell attachment.
+ Fibronectin promotes the attachment and spreading of many adherent cells on plastic, but also mediates binding to other extracellular matrix components such as e.g. collagen.
- Preparation
+ Fibronectin is purified from human plasma; donors tested negative for anti-HIV antibodies and HBs antigen.
- Reconstitution
+ Dissolve contents in sterile water.
+ Prepare a 1 mg/ml solution by gently warming the vial to 37° C; do not agitate, this may cause precipitation.
+ Recommended amount for coating
+ For coating of cell culture vessels 1-5 μg/cm2 is used.
- Storage
+ Lyophylisate can be stored at 2-8° C; solution stored at -20° C in aliquots
