Format
Lyophilized
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Buffer
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in 20 mM PB, 500 mM NaCl, pH 7.0.
Conseil sur la manipulation
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Stock
4 °C/-20 °C
Stockage commentaire
This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 °C, but should be kept at -20 °C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8 °C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 °C to -70 °C.
Defensin are 3-4 kDa antimicrobial peptides of which three distinct families have been identified, alpha-defensin, beta-defensins, and insect defensins. Rat beta-Defensin 1, as a member of the beta-defensin family, is a salt-sensitive antimicrobial peptide present in epithelia of the lung and urogenital tract. The predicted amino acid sequence shows the hallmark features of other known epithelial beta-defensins, including the ordered array of six cysteine residues. Synonyms: Beta-defensin 1, BD-1, rBD-1, Defensin beta 1, Defb1.
Poids moléculaire
