Interferon-beta 1a Human Recombinant produced in CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovarian) cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 166 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 22500 Dalton.IFN-beta1a is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Interferon-beta has antiviral, antibacterial and anticancer activities.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interferon beta 1a in sterile 18M?-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
The specific activity as determined in a viral resistance assay (human "Wish" cell line and VSV virus or the monkey VERO cell line with EMCV virus) was found to be 270 x 106 IU/mg.
