Active Recombinant Human IFNA2 Protein, Animal Free

Species :	Human
Source :	Human Cells
Description :	The interferon alpha 2A (IFN-α2A) is type I interferon. IFN-α 2A is produced by macrophages, peripheral blood leukocytes and lymphoblastoid cells. Proteins of this family play an important role in inducing non-specific resistance against a broad range of viral infections. IFN-α 2A has wide biological activities ranging as antiproliferation, immunomodulation, and antiviral. IFN-α 2A also affects cell proliferation and modulate immune responses, and regulates expression of MHC class -I antigens.
Bio-activity :	The activity was measured by its ability to stimulate the proliferation of human TF-1 cells (human erythroleukemic indicator cell line).
Molecular Mass :	16 kDa
Endotoxin :	<0.5 EU/ μg
Purity :	High Purity, >95% by SDS-PAGE
Stability :	Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. In general: 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -80 centigrade as supplied. 1 month, 2 to 8 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution. 3 months, -20 to -80 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Storage Buffer :	Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS without carrier protein
Reconstitution :	Briefly centrifuge the vial before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the protein in sterile PBS containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant human serum albumin.
