GRADE & PURITYCarrier Free?Carrier-free — supplied without added carrier protein/stabilizer. Use when carriers (e.g. BSA) would interfere with conjugation or sensitive assays.Bioactive?Bioactive grade — verified to retain biological activity in functional assays. Use when the molecule must be functionally active, not just pure.ActiBioPure™?ActiBioPure™ — Aladdin's premier line for bioactive and recombinant products. Use when both high purity and preserved biological activity are required.High Performance?High-performance grade with optimized purity and performance characteristics. Use for sensitive analyses where ordinary grades fall short.PBS Only?PBS-only formulation — supplied in phosphate-buffered saline with no other additives. Use when you need a clean PBS buffer free of stabilizers/carriers.≥95%(SDS-PAGE)See COA

Biochemical and Physiological Mechanisms
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional α-helical cytokine that regulates cell growth and differentiation of various tissues, which is known particularly for its role in the immune response and acute phase reactions. IL-6 protein is secreted by a variet

Recombinant Human IL-6 Protein (rp228960) - Protein Bioactivity Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF-1 human erythroleukemic cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.16 ng/mL.
Recombinant Human IL-6 Protein (rp228960) - SDS-PAGE 3 μg/lane of Recombinant Human IL-6 Protein was resolved with SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) and non-reducing (N) conditions and visualized by Coomassie® Blue staining, showing a band at 19.6 kDa under reducing conditions and 18.9 & 41.8 kDa under non-reducing conditions. The observation of IL-6 Protein as both dimers and monomers under non-reducing (NR) conditions suggests that a portion of the protein forms dimers. This dimerization may be mediated by (or stabilized by) disulfide bonds (Uniprot: P05231).
