Lyophilized
Rekonstitution
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/mL is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.
Buffer
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in 50 mM Tris, 10 mM CaCl2, 150 mM NaCl ( pH 7.5). Normally 8 % trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
Lagerung
-20 °C,-80 °C
Informationen zur Lagerung
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.,-80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution.,2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution.,Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
Alteration of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) expression has been studied for various cardiac diseases, including dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), with the significance of surrogate markers of extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. MMP-8 was identified only in myocardiocytes, while MMP-9 and TIMP-2 were present in both myocardiocytes and stroma, but with different intensity. The increasing intensity of MMP-8 and TIMP-2 immunoreactions was significantly associated with low HCS.
Molekulargewicht
52.2 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 65-70 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.
