| Known as | Interleukin-3; IL-3; Hematopoietic Growth Factor; Mast Cell Growth Factor; MCGF; Multipotential Colony-Stimulating Factor; P-Cell-Stimulating Factor; IL3 |
|---|---|
| Derived from | Human cells |
| Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. |
| Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH7.4. |
| Shipping | The product is shipped at ambient temperature. |
| Storage | Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days.Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months |
| Reconstitution | Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Endotoxin | Less than 0.1 ng/ug (1 IEU/ug) as determined by LAL test. |
| Background | Interleukin-3 (IL-3) is a potent growth promoting cytokine. IL-3 can stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells as well as various lineage committed progenitors. IL-3 exerts its biological function through binding to specific cell surface receptors. The amino acid sequences of this protein among different species share relatively low identity and its activity is highly species-specific. IL-3 has also been shown to possess neurotrophic activity, and is thought to be associated with neurologic disorders. |
