Application Details

Application Notes:

Application Note: Interleukin-6 (IL-6) has been tested by SDS-PAGE and is suitable as a control for polyclonal or monoclonal anti-Interleukin-6 (IL-6) in immunological assays. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized recombinant M-IL-6 in 10 mM HCl to 0.1-1.0 mg/mL to regain full activity, this can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Other: User Optimized

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized recombinant M-IL-6 in 10 mM HCl to 0.1-1.0 mg/mL to regain full activity, this can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Preservative: Without preservative

Storage: 4 °C,-20 °C

Storage Comment: Store vial at 4° C prior to restoration. Dilute only prior to immediate use. Maintain sterility. This product DOES NOT contain preservative. DO NOT VORTEX. We recommend adding a carrier protein such as HSA or BSA to 0.1% (i.e. 1.0 mg/mL) . For best results aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or colder. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge vial before each opening to dislodge contents from the cap and to clarify if contents are not clear after standing at room temperature.

Expiry Date: 6 months

Target: IL-6 (IL6) (Interleukin 6 (IL6))

Alternative Name: Il6

Background:

Synonyms: Interleukin-6 cytokine, IL-6, B-cell stimulatory factor 2, BSF-2, Interferon beta-2, IFN-beta-2, Hybridoma growth factor, CTL differentiation factor, CDF, Interleukin HP-1

Background: Interleukin (IL)-6, also know as BCDG, BCGF and BSF-2, is an important proinflammatory and immunoregulatory cytokine expressed by various cells. Interleukin-6 has been shown to inhibit the growth of early stage and to promote the proliferation of advanced stage melanoma cells in vitro. Recombinant Mouse IL-6 produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 187 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 21,709 Daltons.
