Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Human
• Tag: Non
• Description: Interleukin 11 (IL11)is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL11 gene. IL11 is amultifunctional cytokine first isolated in 1990 from bone marrow-derivedstromal cells. It is a key regulator of multiple events in hematopoiesis,most notably the stimulation of megakaryocyte maturation.It is also knownunder the names adipogenesis.
• Form: Lyophilizedfrom a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
• Purity: >97% asdetermined by HPLC and SDS-PAGE analyses.

• Molecular Weight: 19.1 kDa
• Biological Activity: The ED50as determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of the proliferation ofmurineB9-11 was found to be less than 1 ng/ml, corresponding to a specificactivity of 1 x 10⁷ IU/mg.
• Endotoxin Level: Less than0.1 ng/µg (1 EU/µg) of recombinant human IL11.
• Reconstitution: Centrifugevial prior to opening. Add sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer to a concentrationof 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate bufferedsolutions.
• Storage: Stableat 2-8°C, but best kept desiccated -20°C. Upon reconstitution, stable for upto 1 week at 2-8°C. For longer term, store in working aliquots below -20°C.Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
