Growth factors are proteins that bind to receptors found on the surface of non-hematopoietic cells. Each family of growth factors affect specific cell types, e.g., nerve growth factors (NGF) affect nerve cell types, and epidermal growth factors (EGF) affect epithelial cell types.

Corning offers a range of growth factors that are derived from different species, both natural and recombinant. These growth factors have been used to promote long-term proliferation in cell culture and to induce cell differentiation in a variety of cell types under serum-free or reduced serum conditions.
