Alternative Name(s): C-X-C motif chemokine 8 Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 8 Emoctakin Granulocyte chemotactic protein 1 Short name: GCP-1 Monocyte-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor Short name: MDNCF Monocyte-derived neutrophil-activating peptide Short name: MONAP Neutrophil-activating protein 1 Short name: NAP-1 Protein 3-10C T-cell chemotactic factor IL8
Relevance: IL-8 is a chemotactic factor that attracts neutrophils, basophils, and T-cells, but not monocytes. It is also involved in neutrophil activation. It is released from several cell types in response to an inflammatory stimulus. IL-8(6-77) has a 5-10-fold higher activity on neutrophil activation, IL-8(5-77) has increased activity on neutrophil activation and IL-8(7-77) has a higher affinity to receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2 as compared to IL-8(1-77), respectively.

Purity: Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Storage Buffer: Tris-based buffer,50% glycerol
Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20℃/-80℃. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20℃/-80℃.
Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4℃ for up to one week.
