Description:
Interleukin-8 Human Recombinant produced in Yeast is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 79 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9 kDa.
The IL-8 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms:
IL-8, CXCL8, Monocyte-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor, MDNCF, T-cell chemotactic factor, Neutrophil-activating protein 1, NAP-1, Protein 3-10C, Granulocyte chemotactic protein 1, GCP-1, Monocyte-derived neutrophil-activating peptide, MONAP, Emoctakin, K60, NAF, LECT, LUCT, 3-10C, LYNAP, SCYB8, TSG-1, AMCF-I, b-ENAP.
Source:
Pichia Pastoris.
Purity:
Greater than 98.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin 8 in sterile 18MΩ–cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Formulation:
Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing 20mM sodium phosphate buffer pH-8.
Stability:
Lyophilized Interleukin-8 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 °C. Upon reconstitution CXCL8 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:
Specific Activity of IL8 in chemotaxis of donor PBL neutrophils, threshold concentration of 25ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 40,000IU/mg.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
