Inhibin Beta B

Inhibin beta B is a homodimer of the inhibin/activin beta-B chain, and is involved in several aspects of embryonic development, as well as hematopoiesis and osteogenesis, and also acts as a modulator of FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) secretion and hemoglobin synthesis.

Storage Information
- Storage
- Prior to reconstitution store at -20oC.
After reconstitution store at -20oC.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the protein. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use. - Guarantee
- Guaranteed for 3 months from the date of reconstitution or until the date of expiry, whichever comes first. Please see label for expiry date.
