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. 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. Solubility: Colorless, clear, complete Loss on drying: 2.0% Absorbance: 0.8 Histamine: 0.2ug/3EU Activity (on dried basis): 5400KIU/mg Protein impurities of higher molecular mass: Complies Bacterial endotooxins: None Detected Abnormal toxicity: Non-toxic Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with ddH2O. Aliquot and store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 6 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. CAS Number: 9087-70-1 |
