Biological Data

Application notes ED50 = <0.5ng/ml (determined by dose-dependent stimulation of human MCF-7 cells proliferation), corresponding to a specific activity of >2.0×106 units/mg

Solubility & Handling

Solubility overview To make a stock solution, reconstitute in sterile 18MΩcm water at a concentration > 100μg/ml, which can then be diluted to make a working solution
Handling
  • Solutions should be made in sterile deionized water (not less than 100 µg/ml). This solution can then be further diluted with other aqueous solutions.
  • Following reconstitution, solutions may be stored at 4°C and are useable for around 2-7 days and for future use store at -18°C.
  • Freeze-thaw cycles should be prevented.
