Purity:
Greater than 97.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis SDS-PAGE.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin-16 in sterile 18MΩ–cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Formulation:
IL-16 was lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
Stability:
Lyophilized Interleukin-16 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 °C. Upon reconstitution IL16 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. Determined by its ability to chemoattract human CD4+ T-Lymphocytes using a concentration range of 50.0-100.0 ng/ml.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
