Introducing Erythropoietin (EPO) in a 3000 IU concentration, a recombinant glycoprotein hormone widely studied in research related to erythropoiesis and oxygen transport. EPO plays a critical role in regulating red blood cell production by stimulating erythroid progenitor cells in the bone marrow. Due to its biological importance, EPO is a key focus in experimental studies on anemia, hypoxia, and tissue oxygenation.

Product Details:

• Name: Erythropoietin (EPO) 3000 IU

• Catalogue Number: EPO3

• Chemical Formula: [ ]

• Molecular Weight: ~30.4 kDa (glycosylated protein; may vary by expression system)

• Purity Level: ≥99%

• Amino Acid Sequence: [Human EPO consists of 165 amino acids; exact recombinant sequence may vary by production method]

• Physical Form: Lyophilized Powder

Applications and Research Potential:

EPO is primarily investigated for its ability to stimulate erythropoiesis through binding to the erythropoietin receptor (EPOR). Research has explored its potential applications in models of anemia, chronic kidney disease, hypoxic stress, and neuroprotection. Beyond hematopoiesis, studies also indicate that EPO may exert cytoprotective and regenerative effects in neural and cardiac tissues, making it a versatile subject in experimental medicine.

Handling and Storage Instructions:

EPO is provided as a lyophilized powder for maximum stability. Reconstitute under sterile conditions using bacteriostatic water. Store lyophilized EPO at –20 °C in a dry environment. After reconstitution, store at 2–8 °C for short-term use. Follow HSE laboratory safety guidelines at all times.

Production and Quality Control:

Each batch of EPO is manufactured using advanced recombinant expression systems and undergoes stringent purification processes. Quality control testing, including SDS-PAGE and HPLC, is employed to verify purity, structural integrity, and batch-to-batch consistency.

Regulatory and Safety Notes:

EPO is intended strictly for scientific research purposes and is not suitable for human or veterinary use. Researchers must comply with institutional laboratory safety procedures and regulatory standards, including MHRA guidelines where applicable.
