Purity

˃ 90 % by SDS-PAGE

SDS-PAGE Gel

14% SDS-PAGE separation of Hu Betatrophin:
1. M.W. marker – 97, 66, 45, 31, 21, 14 kDa
2. reduced and heated sample, 2.5μg/lane
3. non-reduced and non-heated sample, 2.5μg/lane

Endotoxin

< 1.0 EU/µg

Formulation

Filtered (0.4 μm) and lyophilized in 0.5 mg/mL in 0.05M Acetate buffer pH 4.0

Reconstitution

Add 0.1 M Acetate buffer pH4 to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5 mg/mL and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. For conversion into higher pH value, we recommend intensive dilution by relevant buffer to a concentration of 10 μg/mL. In higher concentrations the solubility of this antigen is limited.

Applications

Western blotting, ELISA

Shipping

At ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store the product at the temperature recommended below.

Storage/Expiration

Store the lyophilized protein at -80 °C. Lyophilized protein remains stable until the expiry date when stored at -80 °C. Aliquot reconstituted protein to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles and store at -80 °C for long term storage. Reconstituted protein can be stored at 4 °C for a week.

Quality Control Test

BCA to determine quantity of the protein.
SDS PAGE to determine purity of the protein. LAL to determine quantity of endotoxin.

Note

This product is intended for research use only.

Summary

Research topic

Diabetology - Other Relevant Products, Energy metabolism and body weight regulation, Lipoprotein metabolism

Summary
