Description

Trypsin is a proteolytic enzyme used to detach adherent cell from culture vessel surfaces. Typical use includes removing adherent cells from a culture surface. The concentration of trypsin necessary to dislodge cells from their substrate is dependent primarily on the cell type and the age of the culture.

  • Without EDTA
  • Without Phenol Red
  • Without Calcium and Magnesium
  • In PBS (Phosphate Buffered Saline)

Applications

Trypsin is a serine protease derived from porcine pancreas. It is a single chain polypeptide of 223 amino acid residue with substrate specificity based on positively charged Lysine and Arginine side chains. Trypsin predominantly cleaves peptide chains at the carboxyl sides of Lysine and Arginine, except when either is followed by Proline. It is most commonly used for dissociation and disaggregation of adherent cells.

Recommendation

Do not add calcium or magnesium.
Prolonged exposure can negatively affect cell viability. Be aware of exposure time.
