Cat#: | RP-6134H |
Product Name: | Recombinant Human TNF a Protein |
Synonym: | TNF-alpha, Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 2, TNF-a, Cachectin, DIF, TNFA, TNFSF2. |
Description: | Tumor Necrosis Factor-a Protein produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 158 amino acids (157 a.a. of the mature human TNF-alpha and an N-terminal methionine) and having a molecular mass of 17.5kDa. The TNF-alpha is purified by standard chromatographic techniques. |
Source: | E.coli |

Purity: | Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Bioactivity: | The Specific Activity is >5.0×107 IU/mg as determined by the cytolysis of murine L929 cells in the presence of Actinomycin D. |
Formulation: | 1mg of TNF-alpha Human contain 20mM PB, pH-7.2, and 100mM NaCl. |
Stability: | Recombinant Proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70℃ |
Reconstitution: | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Storage: | Lyophilized Tumor Necrosis Factor-a although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution TNF-a should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
