TNF ALPHA HU REC-50UG

General description

Product Source: E.coli

Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a potent lymphoid factor that exerts cytotoxic effects on a wide range of tumor cells and certain other target cells. The mature form of human TNF-alpha has 157 amino acid residues. GF023 is a recombinant polypeptide containing the mature form of human TNF-a with a polyhistidine tag at its amino terminal.

Application

For most in vitro applications, TNF-alpha exerts its biological activity in the concentration range of 0.05 to 20.0 ng/mL. Responding cells are (partial list): Tumor cells, certain other cells.

Physical form

Lyophilized from 3mM Tris, pH 8.0.

Storage and Stability

The lyophilized powder, though stable at room temperature, is best stored desiccated at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile distilled water to a concentration of 0.1-1 mg/mL. Note: Allow the reconstituted vial to sit at room temperature for 2 hours before use. This solution can be diluted into other buffered solutions and stored at 4°C for one week or -20°C for future use. Reconstituted TNF-alpha should be stored in undiluted aliquots at -20°C for up to six months.

Analysis Note

Specific Activity: Chemicon′s human TNF-alpha, is fully biologically active when compared to standards.The ED50 as determined by the cytolysis of mouse L929 cells in the presence of Actinomycin-D is ≤ 0.05 ng/mL
