Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Purity

>98% by SDS-PAGE analyses.

Biological Activity

The ED₅₀ as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine Balb/c 3T3 cells is less than 5.0 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of > 2.0 × 10⁵ IU/mg. Fully biologically active when compared to standard.

Endotoxin

< 0.1 EU per 1μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in 30% Acetonitrile and 0.1% TFA.

Reconstitution

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in 4mM HCl to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20℃. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
