Background
Interleukin-18 (IL-18) belongs to the IL-1 family. An intermediate molecule that induces the synthesis of interferon gamma. It can stimulate the proliferation of T cells, enhance the activity of natural killer cells, participate in the production of cytokines, and cooperate with IL-12.

Storage Conditions
Lyophilized Human IL-18 proteinshould be stored desiccated below -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) . Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Protein Length
The recombinant Human IL-18 consists of 158 amino acids (N-Met) and has a predicted molecular mass of 18 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the Human IL-18 protein is approximately 18 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions
Formulation
Lyophilized from sterile 20 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl pH 7.5.
Applications Notes
Human
Other Product Names
IL-18; IL18; IL 18; IFN gamma inducing factor; Interleukin 18; Interleukin-18; Interleukin 18 (interferon-gamma-inducing factor)
Recommended Usage
Always centrifuge tubes before opening . It is recommended to centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute. Then reconstitute the lyophilized Human IL-18 protein with the buffer we provided not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
