Source:
Human pituitary glands
Purity:
Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized TSH 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 concentrated (1.31mg/1ml) solution containing 50mM ammonium bicarbonate.
Stability:
Lyophilized recombinant TSH although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 °C. Upon reconstitution TSH 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:
9.3 IU/mg vial by Centaur CP. Siemens Centaur CP is standardized against WHO 3rd IRP 81/565.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
