Lysozyme from Chicken Eggwhite
MP BiomedicalsLysozyme (muramidase) hydrolyzes preferentially the β-1,4 glucosidic linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine which occur in the mucopeptide cell wall structure of certain microorganisms, such as Micrococcus lysodeikticus. Extracts group specific antigens …

Papain
MP BiomedicalsPapain is a sulfhydryl protease from Carica papaya latex. (A second protease, chymopapain, and a lysozyme have also been isolated from this same source.) Since native crystalline papain is quite unreactive until acted upon by mild reducing agents such as cysteine or cyanide, it may exist as a…

Cellulase from Aspergillis niger
MP BiomedicalsCellulase refers to a group of enzymes which, acting together, hydrolyze cellulose. The b-glucosidases, including cellobiose, are primarily active on the smaller molecular weight cellulose hydrolysates. During cellulose breakdown they are active on the dimers and oligomers of cellulose. …

Ficin
MP BiomedicalsFicin is a purified ficin preparation which is extracted from the latex of the fig tree Ficus glabrata. Ficin is classified as a thiol protease. Ficin hydrolyses the peptide bonds where the carbonyl group is from phenylalanine or tyrosine. When used in conjunction with other plants proteases,…
-
Lipase from Porcine
MP BiomedicalsLipases are a subclass of the esterases. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of emulsified esters of glycerol and long chain fatty acids. Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel. Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of esters…
