Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Purity

> 96% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.

Biological Activity

The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human neutrophils is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml. Fully biologically active when compared to standard.

Endotoxin

< 1.0 EU per 1μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in 2 × PBS, pH7.4.

Reconstitution

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20°C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
