Description
Worthington Papain is purified from Carica papaya latex. This enzyme has wide specificity, and it will degrade most protein substrates more extensively than the pancreatic proteases. For tissue dissociation applications papain has proved less damaging and more effective than other proteases.
The lyophilized Papain (Code: PAPL) can be used in place of the aqueous suspension preparation for immunochemical and cell isolation applications. It offers the convenience, stability and versatility of a lyophilized powder along with the enzymatic activity of the liquid preparation.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder prepared from a 2X crystalline suspension containing sodium acetate. Code: PAP. To insure full activity, the enzyme should be incubated in a solution containing 1.1mM EDTA, 0.067mM mercaptoethanol and 5.5mM cysteine-HCl for 30 minutes. It is recommended that the enzyme be 0.22 micron filtered after dissolution and prior to use.
