Amount : | 25 µg |
Purification : | Greater than 98.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Content : | Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing 20mM sodium phosphate buffer pH-8. |
Storage condition : | Lyophilized Interleukin-8 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CXCL8 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |

Interleukin-8 Human Recombinant produced in Yeast is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 79 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9 kDa. The IL-8 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a chemokine produced 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, the Weibel-Palade bodies.When first encountering an antigen, the primary cells to encounter it are the macrophages who phagocytose the particle. Upon processing, they release chemokines to signal other immune cells to come in to the site of inflammation. IL-8 is one such chemokine. It serves as a chemical signal that attracts neutrophils at the site of inflammation, and therefore is also known as Neutrophil Chemotactic Factor.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin 8 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. Specific Activity of IL8 in chemotaxis of donor PBL neutrophils, threshold concentration of 25ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 40,000IU/mg.
