| Aprotinin inhibits the activity of several proteolytic enzymes such as chymotrypsin, kallikrein, plasmin and trypsin. It is present in blood and in most tissues, with a high concentration in lung, inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokine release and maintains glycoprotein homeostasis. In platelets, aprotinin reduces glycoprotein loss (e.g., GpIb, GpIIb/IIIa), while in granulocytes it prevents the expression of pro-inflammatory adhesive glycoproteins | | | Catalog # | A2300-03 | | Aprotinin is a natural proteinase inhibitor polypeptide consisting of 58 amino acids arranged in a single polypeptide chain, cross-linked by three disulfide bridges and having a molecular mass of 6512D. | | Biological Activity | ~6000 KIU (Kallikrein Inactivator Units) per mg, 4.85 TIU/mg. | | Unit Definition | 1 Unit corresponds to 1 biological kallikrein inhibitor unit (KIU). | | 1 TIU ~1300 KIU. | | Storage and Stability | Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C.
