BNP Human
Synonyms:
NPPB, Natriuretic Peptide Precursor B, BNP, B-type Natriuretic Peptide.
Catalogue Number:
CYT-327
Description:
B-type Natriuretic Peptide Human (BNP Human) Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 32 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 3464 Dalton. BNP Human is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction:
Natriuretic Peptide Precursor B acts as a cardiac hormone with a variety of biological actions including natriuresis, diuresis, vasorelaxation, and inhibition of renin and aldosterone secretion. It is thought to play a key role in cardiovascular homeostasis. Helps restore the body's salt and water balance. Improves heart function.
Source:
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance:
BNP Human is a sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation:
Natriuretic Peptide Precursor B was lyophilized from 0.4ml PBS buffer containing 20mM phosphate buffer and 0.6mM sodium chloride.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized B-type Natriuretic Peptide in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability:
Lyophilized B-type Natriuretic Peptide although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution NPPB should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
