Description |
|
Recombinant Human IL-3 produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 133 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 15000 Dalton. The rHuIL-3 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
|
 |
Physical Appearance |
|
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
|
 |
Formulation |
|
Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing5mg HSA and 4.3mg Sodium Chloride. |
|
 |
Solubility |
|
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized rHuIL-3 in sterile 18Mω-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
|
 |
Stability |
|
Lyophilized rHuIL-3 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccatedbelow -18 C. Upon reconstitution rHuIL-3 should be stored at 4 C between 2-7 days and for future usebelow -18 C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles. |
|
 |
Purity |
|
Greater than 98.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Anion-exchange FPLC. (c) Analysis by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained gel. |
|
 |
Dimmers and Aggregates |
|
Less than 1% as determined by silver-stained SDS-PAGE gel analysis. |
|
 |
Biological Activity |
|
IMGENEX's rHuIL-3 is fully biologically active when compared to standard.The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of TF-1 cells is less then 0.1 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 1 x 10 IU/mg. |
|
 |
Endotoxin |
|
Less than 0.1 ng/µg (IEU/µg) of rHuIL-3. |
|
 |
Protein Content |
|
Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods: 1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.84 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENEcomputer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). 2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of IL-3 as a Reference Standard. |
