Thermo Fisher Scientific Pierce Protease Inhibitor Tablets

Thermo Scientific™ Pierce Protease Inhibitor Tablets

Thermo Scientific Pierce Protease Inhibitor Tablets contain broad-spectrum protease inhibitors that effectively prevent proteolytic degradation during cell lysis and protein extraction experiments.

Features

• Improved formulation: Tablets dissolve quickly to form a clear solution
• Economical: Cost-effective compared to other commercial formulations
• Convenient: Ready-to-use, fully disclosed, broad-spectrum formulation
• Compatible: Suitable for use with Pierce BCA assays

Product Description

Pierce Protease Inhibitor Tablets protect proteins from degradation by inhibiting serine, cysteine, aspartic acid proteases, and aminopeptidases typically present in cell lysates.
Each tablet contains AEBSF, aprotinin, bestatin, E-64, leupeptin, and pepstatin A.
Stable for storage at 4°C for up to 12 months, each tablet is sufficient for 50 mL of solution and ideal for protein extraction from tissue and cultured cells.

Proteases catalyze protein breakdown into peptides or amino acids. Upon cell lysis, released proteases can degrade valuable proteins. Therefore, adding inhibitors to lysis buffers or extracts is standard practice.

Usage

Dissolve 1 tablet in 50 mL of buffer or lysate.
Compatible with most detergent-based lysis reagents, including Pierce Cell Lysis solutions.
Does not contain phosphatase inhibitors—add Pierce Phosphatase Inhibitor Mini Tablets if needed.
