Description

Porcinesomatotropin (CAS NO 9067-08-7) is a purified polypeptide hormone, also known as porcine growth hormone, essential for regulating growth, metabolism, and body composition in swine. Its primary commercial value lies in its application in veterinary research and animal science to study and enhance lean muscle growth and feed efficiency. This product is critical for research institutions, veterinary pharmaceutical developers, and animal nutrition companies focused on advancing swine production and health.

Application

• Veterinary Research & Development: Used as a key reference standard and active ingredient in studies investigating growth promotion, metabolic regulation, and reproductive performance in pigs.
• Animal Science Studies: Essential for academic and industrial research on the mechanisms of somatotropin action, nutrient partitioning, and the development of improved swine breeds.
• Biopharmaceutical Precursor: Serves as a starting material or intermediate in the development and production of veterinary biologics and therapeutic proteins.
• Diagnostic Kit Manufacturing: Utilized in the production of immunoassays (ELISAs, RIA) and other diagnostic reagents for measuring growth hormone levels in porcine serum and tissue samples.
• Nutritional & Metabolic Research: Applied in studies to understand and optimize dietary formulations for maximizing lean tissue accretion and overall swine health.

Quality Control

Our Porcinesomatotropin is produced and tested under stringent quality management systems to ensure high purity and biological activity. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, electrophoresis, and bioassay to confirm identity, purity, and potency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your research and development specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dedicated freezer. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake. For long-term stability, store under inert atmosphere if possible.
