How to prepare a solution for laboratory testing?

1. Remove the caps from both vials.
2. Apply spirit to a cotton swab and disinfect the elastics in both vials.
3. Using an insulin syringe, pour 1 ml of bacteriostatic water into the powder vial (along the wall of the vessel)
4. Roll the vial in your hands or spin the vial making a vortex until the solution dissolves. This activity can be done vigorously, it is important not to foam the solution with strong shaking.
5. The solution prepared in this way gives us a concentration of 2 mg of Tb-500 peptide (43aa) for every 0.2 ml of solution, which should be stored in the refrigerator from now on. You can also prepare the solution in other concentrations as required.

Storage and transportation

In dry form, the peptide should be stored at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Even longer transport by courier will not affect the stability and quality of the product.

In wet form (after the solution has been prepared), the peptide should be refrigerated at all times and used within 30 days.

Research use of the product (TB-500 10 mg + bacteriostatic water)

The product is intended exclusively for in vitro research applications and acts as a reagent for molecular and cellular analyses targeting cytoskeletal reorganisation processes and cell dynamics. In laboratory models it is used to:

• studies of the interaction of the full sequence of thymosin beta-4 with selected cellular markers and structures involved in cell adhesion and migration,

• to assess the effects on the expression of regulatory and structural proteins in cell cultures with different phenotypes,

• analysis of changes in protein levels and activity of potential signalling pathways involved in the cellular response to mechanical and environmental stimuli,

• support validation, comparison and optimisation procedures carried out in molecular biology, cell biology and biochemistry research.
