General description
Product Source: Protein is expressed in E.coli.
The protein is manufactured without the use of any animal products/reagents and is considered Animal-Free and can be used in protocols where possible transmisson of animal viruses and contamination must be avoided.
Physical form
Product is presented in 10 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.5 + 80
mM L-Arginine and is filtered through a 0.2 micron filter before lyophilization.
Quality
Assay #1: The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of IL-8 production by human PBMC is less than 10 ng/ml.
Assay #2: TWEAK weakly induces the death of HT29 cells when cultured in the presence of IFN-γ. The ED50 for this effect is between 30-45 ng/ml.
Storage and Stability
Store at -20°C for up to 4 months from date of receipt Centrifuge the vial prior to opening.
Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein and store in working aliquots at -20°C.
