SKU: orb1631643

Description

Recombinant Human IL-8 (77a.a.)(rHu IL-8/CXCL8)

Key Properties

• Source: Escherichia coli.
• Expression System: Escherichia coli.
• Biological Activity: Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human CXCR2 transfected mouse BaF3 cells is less than 2 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 5.0 × 105 IU/mg.
• Molecular Weight: Approximately 8.9 kDa, a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 77 amino acids.
• Purity: > 96 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.

Storage & Handling

• Storage: This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 °C, but should be kept at -20 °C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8 °C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 °C to -70 °C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
• Form/Appearance: Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
• Disclaimer: For research use only
