Recombinant Human Transferrin from Oryza sativa (OsrhTF)
Description
Transferrin is a major iron-binding and cellular transport molecule found in serum. Serum-free cell culture systems require a form of iron delivery. Transferrin is the preferred form of iron transport because cells can physiologically process iron bound to transferrin through transferrin receptors on their surface. Plant-derived recombinant human transferrin OsrhTF is a recombinant human transferrin derived from rice endosperm cells, primarily used for cell culture. Compared to bovine-derived transferrin, plant-derived recombinant human transferrin OsrhTF avoids the risk of contamination from human or animal-origin viruses and mycoplasma.
