The Specific Activity was measured by Normocyth -aemic mice and was found to be 150,000 IU/mg.

Each mg of lyophilized powder contains 0.59 mg sodium citrate, 0.58 mg sodium chloride and 0.006 mg citric acid.

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Epoetin-a in sterile 18M-cm H₂O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells(CHO).

Lyophilized Erythropoietin-a although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18^oC. Upon reconstitution EPO-alpha should be stored at 4^oC between 2-7 days and for future use below -18^oC.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
