Protein per Gram Powder See Label.

Concentration for 1 unity DO at 280 nm 6.17 mg/ml

Physical Appearance Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Purity > 97 % by SDS-PAGE analysis.

Specificity The recombinant Protein A is a genetically engineered protein containing 5 IgG-binding regions of protein A. The recombinant Protein A is ideal for purification of polyclonal or monoclonal IgG antibodies. Protein A binds to various human, mouse and rat IgG subclasses (e.g., human IgG1, IgG2, IgG4; mouse IgG2a, IgG2b, IgG3; rat IgG2c). It also binds to total IgG from rabbit, guinea pig, pig, dog and cat.

Endotoxin Level Less than 0.1 EU/μg of Protein A-Cys, Long Form as determined by LAL method.

Formulation Lyophilized from additive free solution.

Stability & Storage Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

- 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied.

- 1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.

- 3 months, -20 to -70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.

Reconstitution Dissolve in distilled water or saline.

Background Protein A is a cell wall component produced by several strains of Staphylococcus aureus that consists of a single polypeptide chain and contains little or no carbohydrate. Recombinant Protein A is produced in E.Coli and functions essentially the same as native Protein A. It consists of 5 IgG-binding domains E-D-A-B-C aligned in series.
