Recombinant Human TNF-α (ELISA Std.)
Recombinant Human TNF-α (ELISA Std.)
570109 4 pack ¥16,000     

Product Details

Source: Human TNF-alpha, amino acids Val77-Leu233 (Accession # HUMTNFAB) was expressed in E. coli.
Formulation: Lyophilized in sterile-filtered PBS, pH 7.2, containing 1% BSA.
Endotoxin Level: Less than 0.01ng per µg cytokine as determined by the LAL method.
Preparation: ELISA Standard 4-Pack contains four vials of recombinant human TNF-α at >5 ng per vial. Recommended for ELISA application only. Standards are calibrated against a BioLegend Master Calibrator.
Storage & Handling: Upon receipt, store unopened vials at 4°C immediately and use within 12 months from date of receipt. Prior to use, reconstitute the lyophilized powder with 0.2 ml of PBS containing a carrier protein (e.g., 1% BSA, protease free), pH7.4. Re-cap vial, vortex. Allow the reconstituted standard to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, vortex again to mix completely. The reconstituted standard stock solution can be aliquoted into polypropylene vials and stored at -70°C for up to one month. Do not re-use diluted standards. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles.
Application:

ELISA

Recommended Usage:

Each lot of this protein is quality control tested by ELISA assay. For use as an ELISA standard, a standard curve comprised of doubling dilutions from 500 pg/ml to 4 pg/ml is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Application
Notes:

ELISA: This TNF-α protein is useful as a standard for a human TNF-α sandwich ELISA, using unlabeled MAb1 antibody (Cat. No. 502802) for capture and biotinylated MAb11 antibody (Cat. No. 502904) for detection.




Description:

TNF-α is released from macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, T-cells (principally CD4+), NK-cells and many transformed cell lines. Soluble homotrimeric TNF-α is released from cells by proteolysis of the integral membrane precursor form of TNF-α. TNF-α binding to some TNF-α receptors induces apoptosis and depending on cell type, receptor expression, and signal transduction status can induce other responses. TNF-α is involved in the inflammatory response.
