Purity:
Greater than 95.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized FGF 21 Rat Recombinant in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Formulation:
Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in 1xPBS, pH 7.4.
Stability:
Lyophilized FGF 21 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 °C. Upon reconstitution FGF 21 should be stored at 4 °C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18 °C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Activity:
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine NIH/3T3 cells is less than 700 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.4 x 1000 IU/mg in the presence of 5 µg/ml of rMuKlotho-beta.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
