Description   Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional protein originally discovered in the media of cells stimulated with double stranded RNA. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) induces multiple effects, as indicated by its numerous synonyms: plasmacytoma growth factor, interferon-β-2, monocyte derived human B cell growth factor, B cell stimulating factor, hepatocyte stimulating factor, Interleukin Hybridoma/Plasmacytoma-1. Recombinant human Interleukin-6 (IL-6) that is produced in E. coli and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 185 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 21,000 Da.
Molecular Weight   21,000 Da
Purity   Greater than 98.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC (b) Anion-exchange FPLC (c) Analysis by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained gel
Storage   Lyophilized recombinant human Interleukin-6 (IL-6) remains stable at room temperature for three weeks, but it is best stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution recombinant human Interleukin-6 (IL-6) should be stored at 4°C for up to seven days. For long term storage it is recommended that a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) be added. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
