Short descriptionProteinase K solution (20 mg/mL) suitable for nucleic acid purification. Broad-spectrum serine protease free of RNase and DNase, provided as a ready-to-use liquid formulation.
DescriptionProteinase K is a non-specific serine protease with high specific activity (30 U/mg). The enzyme retains activity and stability in the presence of SDS, EDTA and chaotropic salts. Recommended working concentration for nucleic acid extraction is 50–100 µg/mL. This product is supplied at 20 mg/mL and is also available as lyophilized powder for alternative workflows. Store at −20 °C.
Application- Isolation of nucleic acids from bacteria
- Purification of nucleic acids from cells or tissue for PCR and molecular diagnostics
