| Description : |
Granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factors are cytokines that act in hematopoiesis by controlling the production, differentiation, and function of 2 related white cell populations of the blood, the granulocytes and the monocytes-macrophages. This CSF induces granulocytes. |
| Bio-activity : |
The ED50 is 0.5 - 3 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 0.33 - 2.0 x 10^6 units/mg, determined by M-NFS-60 cell proliferation induced by mouse G-CSF in a dose dependent manner. |
| Molecular Mass : |
19 kDa |
| Endotoxin : |
Less than 0.01 ng per µg protein as determined by the LAL method |
| Purity : |
>98%, as determined by Coomassie stained SDS-PAGE. |
