General description

Macrophage/monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) plays an important role in the inflammatory response of blood monocytes and tissue macrophages. Rat MCP-1 is a 14.1 kDa protein containing 125 amino acid residues.
Product Source: E.coli

Physical form

Lyophilized protein with no additives. The protein may appear as a haze or film which is difficult to see at the bottom of the vial.

Storage and Stability

The lyophilized powder, though stable at room temperature, is best stored desiccated at -20°C. After a quick spin, reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at 4°C for one week or -20°C for future use. After reconstitution store in working aliquots at -20°C for up to 6 months.

Analysis Note

Specific Activity: Determined by its ability to chemoattract human monocytes using a concentration range of 10.0-100.0 ng/ml.
