Description
Product Name: | Rhesus Macaque IL 6 Recombinant Protein |
Product Code: | RPPB0532 |
Size: | 10µg |
Species: | Rhesus Macaque |
Target: | IL 6 |
Synonyms: | IFN-b2, B cell differentiation factor, BCDF, BSF-2, HPGF, HSF, MGI-2, B-cell stimulatory factor 2, IFN beta-2, Hybridoma growth factor, CTL differentiation factor, CDF, IL-6, HGF. |
Source: | Escherichia Coli |
Physical Appearance: | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Formulation: | Lyophilized from a 0.2�m filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4. |
Solubility: | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized�IL-6 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100�g/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Stability: | Lyophilized IL-6 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL-6 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Purity: | Greater than 97.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses. |

Biological Activity: | Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 determined by a cell proliferation assay using IL-6-dependent murine 7TD1 cells is less than 0.1ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 � 10,000,000 IU/mg. |
Il-6 is a cytokine with a wide variety of biological functions: it plays an essential role in the final differentiation of b-cells into ig-secreting cells, it induces myeloma and plasmacytoma growth, it induces nerve cells differentiation, in hepatocytes it induces acute phase reactants.
IL 6 Rhesus Macaque Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 186 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 21.1kDa.The IL 6 Rhesus Macaque is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
