LONG EGF Product Quality
LONG® EGF – Power Your Cell Cultures
Enhance cell proliferation, viability, and culture longevity with LONG® EGF, a recombinant analog of human epidermal growth factor (EGF) optimized for serum-free and low-serum systems. Designed for fibroblast cells, epithelial cells, therapeutic cell culture, keratinocyte growth, and cell-based vaccine production, it delivers consistent, animal-free support for high-performance mammalian cell cultures.
Why LONG® EGF?
- Receptor-specific activity: Activates the ErbB-1 (EGF) receptor, triggering mitogenic signaling pathways that promote cell division, survival, and metabolic activity.
- Synergy with IGF: Works in combination with LONG® R3 IGF-I to enhance proliferation, cell density, and productivity in HEK293, MDCK, and HeLa cultures.
- Robust performance in serum-free systems: Maintains viability and functional activity in chemically defined media, minimizing oxidative stress and apoptosis.
- Animal-free, recombinant production: Proprietary E. coli fermentation ensures reproducible activity without serum-derived variability or contamination risks.

LONG® EGF Product Quality
LONG® EGF is a recombinant analog of human epidermal growth factor (EGF) designed to support consistent cell growth and differentiation in therapeutic cell culture applications. Developed as a like-for-like replacement for native or recombinant human EGF (hEGF), LONG® EGF delivers reliable biological activity while maintaining a completely animal-free process.
Produced through a proprietary Escherichia coli fermentation process, LONG® EGF provides exceptional purity, batch-to-batch consistency, and quality suitable for use in regulatory-approved cell-based therapies.
Key Features
