Features and Benefits: Lysobac(TM) is a breakthrough for bacterial cell lysis and can be used in diagnostic applications, bioprocessing and life science research. It is recombinant human lysozyme produced in an animal-free production system. Animal-free production eliminates the safety risk and inconsistent lot-to-lot performance of hen egg white lysozyme. Lysobac(TM) has significantly higher bioactivity than hen egg white lysozyme. One gram replaces 4 grams of hen egg white lysozyme. It also delivers gentle cell lysis, unlike mechanical lysis which can cause protein shear and reduce protein yields by up to 20%.Advantages:. Improves Bacterial Fermentation Efficiency. Greater bacterial lysis activity per mg.. 1 gram of delivers more lysis activity than 4 grams of HEWL. Animal-free and consistent leading to improved regulatory efficiency for drug manufacturing. Improved recombinant protein yield compared to mechanical lysis. Reduces cost of goods
Unit Definition: One unit will produce a DeltaA450 of 0.001 per min at pH 6.24 at 25 C, using a suspension of Micrococcus lysodeikticus as substrate, in a 2.6 mL reaction mixture (1 cm light path).
