Source: Recombinant corresponding to 158aa of human Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha expressed in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain. Molecular Weight: ~17.5kD Biological Activity: The ED50 as determined by the cytolysis of mouse L929 cells in the presence of Actinomycin D is less then 0.05ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 2x107IU/mg. Dimmers and Aggregates: 1% (SDS-PAGE) Protein Content: Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods: 1. UV spectroscopy at 280nm using the absorbency value of 1.24 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). 2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a calibrated solution of TNF-alpha as a Reference Standard. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O, HSA or BSA. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store 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. Molecular Weight: ~17.5kD |
Purity: ~98% (RP-HPLC, Anion-exchange FPLC, SDS-PAGE) Endotoxin: 0.1ng/ug (IEU/ug) Concentration: Not determined Form: Supplied as a lyophilized powder. No preservative added. Reconstitute with sterile dH2O, 0.1% HSA or BSA to 0.1mg/ml. Important Note: This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
