Visfatin Human Recombinant

Lyophilized powder at room temperature.

Visfatin Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 466 amino acids. The total molecular mass is 52.6kDa (calculated). The Visfatin is purified by Flag-affinity chromatography.

Physical Appearance and Stability: Lyophilized Visfatin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18C. Upon reconstitution Visfatin should be stored at 4C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Formulation and Purity: Visfatin was lyophilized with no additives. Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Solubility: Centrifuge vial before opening. When reconstituting the product, gently pipet and wash down the sides of the vial to ensure full recovery of the protein into solution. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized product with 20 mM HCl at a concentration of 0.1 mg/mL, which can be further diluted into other aqueous solutions. Wait several minutes for full reconstitution and solubility.
Biological Activity: The activity is determined by its ability to induce IL-6, IL-1 beta and TNF alpha production from human PBMCs at 100ng/ml.
