Description of Murine ENA-78 / CXCL5

Epithelial Neutrophil-Activating Protein 78 Murine Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 93 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9.8kDa. The CXCL5 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Biological Activity

Determined by its ability to chemoattract human peripheral blood neutrophils using a concentration range of 10-100ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 10,000-100,000IU/mg.

Reconstitution

We recommend a quick spin followed by reconstitution in sterile water to a concentration of at least 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. Do not vortex.

Stability

Lyophilized ENA-78 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CXCL5 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 avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
