Name: Recombinant Canine IL8 protein
SKU: IL8-571D

Species :	Canine
Source :	E.coli
Tag :	Non
Protein Length :	79
Description :	Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is encoded by the IL8 gene andproduced by macrophages and other cell types such as epithelial cells. It is also synthesized by endothelial cells, which store IL-8 in their storage vesicles. There are many receptors capable to bind IL-8, the most affinity to IL-8 are receptors CXCR1, and CXCR2. As a member of the CXC chemokine family, function of IL-8 is the induction of chemotaxis in its target cells, like neutrophil granulocytes, basophils, and T-cells. . IL-8 is often associated with inflammation and has been cited as a proinflammatory mediator in gingivitis and psoriasis.
Form :	Lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in 2 × PBS, pH 7.4.
Bio-activity :	Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human CXCR2 transfected murine BaF3 cells is in a concentration range of 0.15-0.75 ng/ml.
Molecular Mass :	Approximately 9.1 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 79 amino acids.
AA Sequence :	AVLSRVSSELRCQCIKTHSTPFHPKYIKELRVIDSGPHCENSEIIVKLFNGNEVCLDPKEKWVQKVVQIFLKKAEKQDP
Endotoxin :	Less than 1 EU/μg of rCaIL-8/CXCL8 as determined by LAL method.
Purity :	>95% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis.
Storage :	Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 centigrade as supplied. 1 month, 2 to 8 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution. 3 months, -20 to -70 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Reconstitution :	We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤-20 centigrade. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
