Product Details

Target Species
Human
Product Form
Recombinant protein - lyophilised
Reconstitution
Reconstitute with 250ul sterile deionised 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 long term storage the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended.
Buffer Solution
Citrate buffered saline
Preservative Stabilisers
None present.
Activity
The specific activity was measured by normocythaemic mice and found to be 150,000 IU/mg
Purity
>98.0% by HPLC analysis and SDS-PAGE
Approx. Protein Concentrations
Total protein concentration 0.2mg/ml after reconstitution

Storage Information

Storage
Prior to reconstitution store at +4oC.
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 protein. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
12 months from date of reconstitution.
