20.9 kDa

E. coli

E. coli

Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of the proliferation of IL-6 dependent murine 7TD1 cells is <=0.1 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of >=10^7units/mg.

Less than 0.1 ng/µg of protein (less than 1EU/µg).

Lyophilized from Sterile Solution 10 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.5

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/ml. Note: Gently shake the solution for about 10 minutes for better solubility. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

If lyophilized, can be stored for 1 month at room temperature, 6 months at 4°C, or through the expiration date at -20°C to -80°C. Once reconstituted per the supplied instructions, can be stored for 3 months at -20°C to -80°C, or for 1 week at 2°C to 8°C. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

For research use only. Intended for use by laboratory professionals.
