Biological Activity: Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human CXCR2 transfected mouse BaF3 cells is less than 2 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of ＞ 5.0 ×105 IU/mg.

MW: 8.4 kDa

Purity: >97% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC.

Endotoxin: Less than 1.0 EU/µg as determined by LAL method.

Relevance: IL-8 is a chemotactic factor that attracts neutrophils, basophils, and T-cells, but not monocytes. It is also involved in neutrophil activation. It is released from several cell types in response to an inflammatory stimulus. IL-8 (6-77) has a 5-10-fold higher activity on neutrophil activation, IL-8 (5-77) has increased activity on neutrophil activation and IL-8 (7-77) has a higher affinity to receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2 as compared to IL-8 (1-77) , respectively. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11978786, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2145175, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2212672}.

Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
