Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Rat |
Synonym | Macrophage colony-stimulating factor 1, CSF-1, MCSF, Csf1, Csfm. |
Background | Granulocyte/Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factors are cytokines that act in hematopoiesis by controlling the production, differentiation, and function of 2 related white cell populations of the blood, the granulocytes and the monocytes-macrophages. MCSF induces cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. MCSF plays a role in immunological defenses, bone metabolism, lipoproteins clearance, fertility and pregnancy. |
Description | Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor Rat Recombinant expressed in E.coli is a non-glycosylated homodimer, containing 2 x 155a.a. and having a total molecular weight of 36.2 kDa.MCSF is purified by unique purification methods. |
Source | E.coli |

Purity | >95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin | <1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Bioactivity | The activity as determined by dose-dependent induction of M-NFS-60 cell proliferation is 1.65 ng/ml. This corresponds to an expected specific activity of 6.1x105 units/mg. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a sterile filtered aqueous solution containing 10mM Na3PO4, pH 7.5. |
Stability | Recombinant protein is stable for 12 months at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Lyophilized MCSF although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution MCSF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
