sterile-filtered, suitable for release of physiologically active rat epididymal adipocytes, Type II-S, 0.5-5.0 FALGPA units/mg solid,≥125 CDU/mg solid
Biochemical and Physiological Mechanisms
Effective release of cells from tissue requires the action of both collagenase enzymes and the neutral protease. Collagenase is activated by four gram atom calcium (Ca2+) per mole enzyme. The culture filtrate is thought to contain at least 7 different pro

Product Description
Collagenase has been used in the preparation of arterial tissue for the study of Advanced Glycosylation End Products (AGE). The enzyme has also been used along with other proteases for the disaggregation of human tumor, mouse kidney, human brain, lung epithelium and many other tissues. It is also effective in liver and kidney perfusion studies, digestion of pancreas, and isolation of nonparenchymal hepatocytes. It is also suitable for the preparation adipocytes from epididymal fat pads of rats.
