  Active Protein & In Stock Protein

• Source:

  E.Coli

• Field of Research:

  Immunology

• Relevance:

  Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes and basophils but not neutrophils or eosinophils. Augments monocyte anti-tumor activity. Has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by monocytic infiltrates, like psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis or atherosclerosis. May be involved in the recruitment of monocytes into the arterial wall during the disease process of atherosclerosis.

• Endotoxin:

  Less than 1.0 EU/μg as determined by LAL method.

• Purity:

  >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Activity:

  Yes

• Bioactivity:

  Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human monocytes is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml.

• Form:

  Lyophilized powder

• Buffer:

  Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered PBS, pH 7.4

• Reconstitution:

  We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
