Recombinant Human CNTF is a 199 amino acid, Escherichia coli-derived recombinant protein corresponding to mature human ciliary neutotrophic factor (CTNF), a survival factor for various neuronal cell types believed to prevent the degeneration of motor axons after axotomy.

Target Species
Human
Product Form
Purified recombinant protein - lyophilized
Reconstitution
Reconstitute with 0.2 ml distilled water. Care should be taken during reconstitution as the protein may appear as a film at the bottom of the vial. Bio-Rad recommend that the vial is gently mixed after reconstitution. For extended storage, the addition of 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) is recommended.
Preparation
Purified recombinant CTNF expressed in E. Coli
Source
E.coli
Buffer Solution
10mM Citric Acid + 75mM NaCl
Preservative Stabilisers
None present
Carrier Free
Yes
Activity
The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of human TF-1 cells is 50-150ng/ml.
Purity
>98% by SDS PAGE/HPLC
Approx. Protein Concentrations
0.1 mg/ml after reconstitution
Protein Molecular Weight
22.7 kDa
Endotoxin Level
< 1.0 EU/ug
Regulatory
For research purposes only
Guarantee
Guaranteed for 3 months from the date of reconstitution or until the date of expiry, whichever comes first. Please see label for expiry date.

Prior to reconstitution store at -20oC.
After reconstitution store at -20oC.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
