Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Biological Activity
Description
IL-6 Protein, Rhesus macaque is a inflammatory related and immunoregulatory cytokine contributing to host defense against infections and tissue injuries.
Background
The IL-6 receptor–signaling system is made up of two receptor chains and downstream signaling molecules. The IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) constitutes the IL-6-binding chain, which occurs in two forms, 80 kDa transmembrane and 50-55 kDa-soluble IL-6R (sIL-6R), whereas 130 kDa gp130 constitutes the signal-transducing chain. Both of these proteins belong to the cytokine receptor family with a Trp-Ser-X-Trp-Ser motif[2].
Verified Bioactivity
The ED50 is <0.1 ng/mL as measured by IL-6-dependent murine 7TD1 cells, corresponding to a specific activity of >1.0 × 107 units/mg.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
