Additional Information

Characteristics: BioVision's Erythropoietin is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The Specific Activity measured by Normocyth-aemic mice was found to be 120,000IU/mg.

Description: Recombinant Human Erythropoietin-alpha produced in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by recombinant DNA technology is a single, polypeptide chain containing 165 amino acids and having a predicted molecular mass of 21 kDa and apparent glycosylated molecular mass of 30.4 kDa. EPO-alpha is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Application Details

Purity: > 98% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC ENDOTOXIN: Less than 0.1 ng/ μg (IEU/μg) of rhEPO PHYSICAL

Buffer: Each mg of lyophilized protein contains 0.58 mg sodium citrate, 0.58 mg sodium chloride and 0.006 mg citric acid.

Storage: The lyophilized protein is best-stored desiccated below 0 °C. Reconstituted human EPO should be stored at working aliquots at -20 °C. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Reconstitution: Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1 to 1.0 mg/ml. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at 4 °C for 1 week or -20 °C for future use.

Restrictions: For Research Use only
