Description
OverviewNative trypsin from bovine pancreas. Serine protease that specifically hydrolyzes amides, peptides and proteins at the C-terminal side of arginine and lysine residues. Inhibitors include aprotinin, DFP, and soybean trypsin inhibitor. Note: 1 MU = 1,000,000 units.
Note: 1 NF unit = 1 USP unit = 3 SU at 30°C, pH 7.6; 1 TAME unit = 19.2 USP units = 57.5 BAEE units; 1 MU = 1,000,000 units.

Special InstructionsFollowing reconstitution in HCl, aliquot and freeze (-20°C) for long-term storage or refrigerate (4°C) for short-term storage. Dilute into aqueous buffers (at neutral pH) just prior to use. Following reconstitution in H₂O or buffer, use immediately or aliquot and freeze (-70°C) to minimize autolysis. HCl stock solutions are stable for up to 1 week at 4°C or for up to 1 month at -20°C. H₂O or buffer stock solutions are stable for up to 1 month at -70°C.
