Background

The LCN8 protein is implicated in potentially playing a crucial role in male fertility, suggesting its involvement in essential processes related to reproductive function. Notably, LCN8 may act as a retinoid carrier protein within the epididymis, underscoring its potential significance in the transport and regulation of retinoids, which are essential for various cellular processes, including spermatogenesis. The specific mechanisms by which LCN8 contributes to male fertility and its precise role as a retinoid carrier in the epididymis remain areas of interest, warranting further exploration to unravel its functional significance and molecular interactions in the context of reproductive biology.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Reconstitution Calculator

  • Dilution Calculator

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×
C1   V1   C2   V2

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
