The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of murine CTLL-2 cells is 0.18 ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 55MIU/mg.
The protein (1mg/ml) was lyophilized extensive dialysis against 10mM sodium citrate buffer to a pH=4.
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods
1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.482 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). 2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a calibrated solution of IL-2 as a Reference Standard.
Greater than 98.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Mouse IL-2 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Lyophilized Interleukin-2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18oC. Upon reconstitution IL2 should be stored at 4oC between 2-7 days and for future use below -18oC.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
