Recombinant Mouse Erythropoietin

• Cat.No.: Epo-173M

Specification

• Species: Mouse
• Source: Mammalian Cells
• Tag: Non
• Description: Erythropoietin or EPO is a glycoprotein hormone that controls erythropoiesis, or red blood cell production. It is a cytokine for erythrocyte (red blood cell) precursors in the bone marrow. Also called hematopoietin or hemopoietin, it is produced by the kidney, and is the hormone that regulates red blood cell production. Erythropoietin has its primary effect on red blood cells by promoting red blood cell survival through protecting these cells from apoptosis.
• Molecular Weight: The predicted molecular weight of Recombinant Mouse Epo is Mr 18.6 kDa. However, the actual molecular weight as observed by migration on SDS Page is Mr 36 kDa.
• State Of Matter: Lyophilized.
• Purity: >90% by SDS Page and analyzed by silver stain.
• Endotoxin: <1.0 EU/µg as determined by the LAL method.
• Storage And Stability: This lyophilized protein is stable for six to twelve months when stored desiccated at -20°C to -70°C. After aseptic reconstitution, this protein may be stored at 2°C to 8°C for one month or at -20°C to -70°C in a manual defrost freezer. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles. See Product Insert for exact lot specific storage instructions.
