Data sheet
| Formulation | The protein was lyophilized from 50mM Sodium Chloride solution. |
| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Insulin in PBS pH-7.5. |
| Purity | Greater than 98.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description | Insulin Human Recombinant produced in Yeast is a two chain, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 51 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 5807 Dalton. Zinc content was found to be 0.4%. Insulin is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background | Insulin decreases blood glucose concentration. It increases cell permeability to monosaccharides, amino acids and fatty acids. It accelerates glycolysis, the pentose phosphate cycle, and glycogen synthesis in liver. |
| Expression host | Saccharomyces cerevisiae. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Stability | Lyophilized Insulin although stable at room temperature, should be stored at 4°C. Upon reconstitution Insulin should be stored at -20°C to -80°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Biological Activity | 27.5 units/mg. Insulin has been evaluated in cell culture (Human Foreskin Fibroblasts). The effective concentration range for use in defined media is 1-5ug/ml. However, the optimum concentration range for a particular application must be determined by the investigator. |
