Human Interleukin-3 (rDNA derived) Reference standard

• Cat.No.: IL3-106H
• Product Overview: This Standard is the primary biological standard for IL- 3.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Enzyme Unit: The assigned potency is 1700 International Units of biological activity per ampoule.
• Notes: This preparation is not for administration to humans. The preparation contains material of human origin, and either the final product or the source materials, from which it is derived, have been tested and found negative for HBsAg, anti-HIV and HCV RNA.
• Stability: Reference materials are held at Creative Biomart within assured, temperature- controlled storage facilities and they should be stored on receipt as indicated on the label. Accelerated degradation studies have indicated that this material is suitably stable, when stored at -20°C or below, for the assigned values to remain valid until the material is withdrawn or replaced. These studies have also shown that the material is suitably stable for shipment at ambient temperature without any effect on the assigned values. Once reconstituted, diluted or aliquoted, users should determine the stability of the material according to their own method of preparation, storage and use. Users who have data supporting any deterioration in the characteristics of any reference preparation are encouraged to contact Creative Biomart.
• Storage: For economy of use, it is recommended that the solution be sub divided into several small aliquots and stored at -40°C or below. Avoid repeated thawing/freezing. Unopened ampoules should be stored at -20°C. Please note: because of the inherent stability of lyophilized material, Creative Biomart may ship these materials at ambient temperature.
