Himedia Lactalbumin Hydrolysate Cell Culture Tested

Lactalbumin hydrolysate is prepared by the enzymatic digest of milk protein lactalbumin. It is a common ingredient of vaccine production media. Lactalbumin hydrolysate along with some carbohydrates (lactose, sucrose, etc.) are found to stabilize some of the infectous viruses following lyophilization. Lactalbumin hydrolysate is rich in essential amino acids and is a reservoir of nitrogen, vitamins, and carbon. Enhanced processing of the hydrolysate ensures consistence performance and provides a highly soluble source of amino acids and peptides. Lactalbumin hydrolysate is used as a nutritional supplement to culture mammalian as well as insect cells due to its growth stimulating ability. It is used to reduce serum requirements in culture media.
