Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) accumulate with age and at an accelerated rate in diabetes. AGEs bind cell-surface receptors including the receptor for AGE (RAGE). The fluorescence of Glucose-AGE-BSA was determined by fluorescence spectrometry with Ex./Em.=360/465 nm. The Glucose-AGE-BSA shows a 100-fold increase in fluorescence when compared to the control BSA. Browning of Glucose-AGE-BSA was determined by measuring the absorbance at 320 nm. The Glucose-AGE-BSA shows a 40 fold increase in absorbance when compared to the control BSA.
BP000041-MPR10: Glucose-AGE-BSA
Source: The AGE modified BSA was produced by reacting BSA with glucose under sterile conditions for 2 months followed by dialysis and purification according to the method described in Valentia et al. (2004).
Formulation: Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), 1 ug/ml.
Endotoxin: < 0.1 EU/ug AGE-BSA as determined by the LAL method.
Preservative: None.
QC tests: SDS-PAGE, MALDI-TOF, Fluorescence spectrometry, Absorbance at 320 nm and RAGE binding ELISA
Activity: Measured by its binding to the immobilized RAGE in an ELISA binding assay.
Extent of AGE modification: 25-30 adducts per Glucose-AGE-BSA, as judged by free amine content analysis and MALDI-TOF analysis.
Sterility: 0.2 um membrane-filtered and packaged aseptically.
Storage and stability:
Upon receiving, store the product at 2-8°C for up to 1 month. For extended storage, aliquot the solution and freeze at -70°C or -20°C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
