                                    | Form : | 
                                    Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA. | 
                                
                                
                                    | Bio-activity : | 
                                    Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support adhesion of U937 human histiocytic lymphoma cells. When 5 x 10E4 cells/well are added to mouse VCAM1 coated plates (10 μg/ml with 100 μl/well), approximately 70%-80% cells will adhere after 1 hour at RT. | 
                                
                                
                                    | Molecular Mass : | 
                                    The secreted recombinant mouse VCAM1 consists of 685 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 75.8 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rmVCAM1 is approximately 90-100 kDa due to glycosylation. |

                                    | Storage : | 
                                    Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20°C to -80°C Store it under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. | 
                                
                                
                                    | Reconstitution : | 
                                    It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.2 ug/ul. Centrifuge the vial at 4°C before opening to recover the entire contents. |
