Summary

Recombinant human Interleukin-12 (IL-12) produced in CHO cells is a ~75 kDa glycoprotein comprised of disulfide-linked 35kDa (p35) and 40kDa (p40) subunits.

IL-12 is produced by activated B lymphocytes and macrophages. The properties of IL-12 include the stimulation of growth of activated T lymphocytes, and actions in the development of Th1 CD4 +ve cells and CD8 +ve cytotoxic T cells. IL-12 also promotes activity and division of NK cells and promotes formation of TH1 cells producing &gamma-interferon.

Reconstitution: Reconstitute with 50ul sterile PBS. For extended storage, the addition of 0.1% bovine serum albumin is recommended.
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. Do not vortex.
Preparation: Purified recombinant Human Interleukin-12 expressed in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells.
Buffer Solution: Phosphate buffered saline
Preservative Stabilisers: None present
Purity: >98% by SDS PAGE and HPLC analysis
Approx. Protein Concentrations: 0.2 mg/ml after reconstitution
Protein Molecular Weight: 75kDa (503 Amino acid sequence)

Storage Information

Storage: Prior to reconstitution store at -20^oC. Following reconstitution store at -20^oC.

This product should be stored undiluted.

Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the protein. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life: 3 months from date of reconstitution.

Please see label for expiry date.
