#100 Cholera Toxin
(Azide-Free)
from Vibrio cholerae Inaba 569B

Price: 245 Euro

Contents:

Each vial of cholera toxin, when reconstituted to 1.0 ml with sterile distilled water, contains 1.0 mg of protein in: 0.05 M Tris, 0.2 M NaCl, 0.001 M Na₂EDTA at pH 7.5.
Solubility of cholera toxin, in water, decreases with time, following lyophilization.

Concentration:

Each vial contains 1 mg determined by extinction coefficient of 1.14 at 280 nm and 1 cm for 1 mg/ml.¹

Purity:

The preparation migrates as a single major band in disc gel electrophoresis (nondenaturing conditions). The R_280/260 of each preparation is reported.

Activity:

When examined in an ADP-ribosylation assay,^2,3 the specific enzymatic activity of each lot is at least as high as that of a standard cholera toxin preparation.
