purity :
Greater than 97.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
form :
Lyophilized from a solution containing Phosphate- Buffered Saline pH-7.4. Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
storage stability :
Lyophilized Interleukin-6 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 degree C. Upon reconstitution IL6 should be stored at 4 degree C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18 degree C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
other info2 :
Solubility: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin-6 in sterile 18M Omega -cm H2O not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. Biological Activity: The activity was measured in a cell prolifiration assay using B9 cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.008-0.02ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 50-125,000,000IU/mg.

products description :
Description: Interleukin-6 Human Recombinant produced in CHO is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 185 amino acids and migrates at 22 kDa as a glycosilated protein on SDS-PAGE.The IL6 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Introduction: IL-6 is a cytokine with a wide variety of biological functions: it plays an essential role in the final differentiation of b-cells into ig-secreting cells, it induces myeloma and plasmacytoma growth, it induces nerve cells differentiation, in hepatocytes it induces acute phase reactants.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a cytokine that functions in inflammation and the maturation of B cells. In addition, the encoded protein has been shown to be an endogenous pyrogen capable of inducing fever in people with autoimmune diseases or infections. The protein is primarily produced at sites of acute and chronic inflammation, where it is secreted into the serum and induces a transcriptional inflammatory response through interleukin 6 receptor, alpha. The functioning of this gene is implicated in a wide variety of inflammation-associated disease states, including suspectibility to diabetes mellitus and systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
