{"product_id":"biolegend-571909","title":"Biolegend, 571909, Recombinant Human IL-5 (ELISA Std.), 4pack","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis product is not available for shipping outside of the United States. IL-5 is a homodimeric, disulphide-linked protein produced by T-cells. Monomeric human IL-5 is a 126 amino acid protein with a reported molecular weight of 26 kD for the homodimeric protein. Mouse and human IL-5 are approximately 70% identical. IL-5 has been shown to promote the growth of immature hematopoietic BFU-E progenitors, stimulate the activation and differentiation of eosinophils, and promote the generation of cytotoxic lymphocytes.\u003cbr\u003e\n4pack\u003cbr\u003e\nSource: E. coli, approximately 26 kD\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Lyophilized in sterile-filtered PBS, pH 7.2, containing 1% BSA, 0.09% sodium azide, and protease inhibitors.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: Lot-specific (to obtain lot-specific concentration and expiration, please enter the lot number in our Certificate of Analysis online tool.)\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: Unopened vials can be stored between 2°C and 8°C until the expiration date. 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. Avoid repeated freeze\/thaw cycles.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: ELISA\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended 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.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication Notes: This IL-5 protein is useful as a standard for a human IL-5 sandwich ELISA, using unlabeled JES1-39D10 antibody (catalog #500902) for capture and biotinylated JES1-5A10 antibody (catalog #501002) for detection.\u003cbr\u003e\nStructure: Cytokine; dimer\u003cbr\u003e\nBioactivity: Growth\/differentiation of eosinophils; proliferation\/cell activation\/differentiation of eosinophilic granulocytes\u003cbr\u003e\nCell Sources: Mast cells, T cells, bone marrow stromal cells\u003cbr\u003e\nCell Targets: Eosinophils\u003cbr\u003e\nReceptors: Heterodimer IL-5Rα (CD125); β-subunit (CDw131) in common with IL-3R, GM-CSFR\u003cbr\u003e\nBiology Area: Immunology, Cell Biology\u003cbr\u003e\nMolecular Family: Cytokines\/Chemokines\u003cbr\u003e\nAntigen References: 1.
