PRODUCT NUMBER:

Buy direct from manufacturer. Bulk Qty Available.
(Custom vialing may be available upon request.)

MW: 10-80,000,000 Da

Liquid in 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4, and 0.01% EDTA

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

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.

Storage: 2-6 Degrees C; Do NOT Freeze; Store Away from Light

Shelf Life: minimum 3 months remaining

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.
