Overview
- Species: Human
- Keywords: Chemokines
- Product Type: Interleukin-8 (CXCL8)
- Donor / Source:Escherichia Coli.
- Formulation:The IL-8 was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing no additives.
- Purity:Greater than 98.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
- Amino acid sequence:The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ser-Ala-Lys-Glu-Leu
- Solubility:It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin-8 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
- 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.
