Attributs du produit: Recombinant rat IL-2 is supplied as a frozen liquid comprised of 0.22 µm sterile-filtered aqueous buffered solution (pH 7.2) and containing 2 mg/ml biotechnology grade, low-endotoxin bovine serum albumin, glycerol and with no preservatives. This recombinant rat IL-2 is a single band of approximately 16.5 kD as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis on 10 - 20% gels run under reducing conditions.

Stérilité: 0.22 μm filtered

niveau d'endotoxine: The endotoxin level is ≤ 0.1 ng per µg of rat IL-2 protein, as measured in a LAL chromogenic assay.

Information d'application

Indications d'application: ELISA Standard Recombinant rat IL-2 is useful as a quantitative standard for measuring rat IL-2 protein levels in an IL-2 specific sandwich ELISA. To obtain linear standard curves, doubling dilutions of this rat IL-2 standard from ~2,000 to 15 pg/ml should be included in each ELISA plate.

Buffer: Recombinant rat IL-2 is supplied as a frozen liquid comprised of 0.22 μm sterile-filtered aqueous buffered solution ( pH 7.2) and containing 2 mg/mL biotechnology grade, low-endotoxin bovine serum albumin, glycerol and with no preservatives. This recombinant rat IL-2 is a single band of approximately 16.5 kD as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis on 10 - 20 % gels run under reducing conditions.

Agent conservateur: Azide free

Conseil sur la manipulation: This preparation contains no preservatives, thus it should be handled under aseptic conditions. Rapidly thaw and quick-spin product prior to use. Upon initial thawing the product should be aliquoted into polypropylene microtubes and frozen at -80°C for future use. Alternatively, the product can be diluted in sterile neutral buffer containing not less than 0.5 - 10 mg/ml carrier protein, such as human or bovine albumin, aliquoted and stored at ≤ -70°C. For in vitro biological assay use, we recommend carrier-protein concentrations of 0.5 - 1.0 mg/ml. For use as an ELISA standard we recommend carrier-protein concentrations of 5 - 10 mg/ml. Failure to add carrier protein or store at indicated temperatures may result in a loss of activity. The product should not be diluted to less than 10 µg/ml for long term storage. Carrier proteins should be pre-screened for possible effects in an appropriate experimental system. Carrier proteins may effect experimental results due to toxicity, high endotoxin levels or possible blocking activity.

Stock: -80 °C

Sujet: Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a potent, multifunctional cytokine produced by activated T lymphocytes. It is responsible for the activities attributed to T cell growth factor, thymocyte stimulation factor, thymocyte mitogenesis factor, killer helper factor, and T cell replacing factor. IL-2 stimulates the growth and differentiation of T cells, as well as cytokine production by T cells. In addition, IL-2 can contribute to the activation of monocytes/macrophages and NK and LAK cells and can augment B cell growth and differentiation.
