Collagenase/Elastase

$995.00

    Catalog Number: B2024100 (1 u)

    Collagenase and elastase are enzymes that break down specific proteins in the body. Collagenase breaks down collagen, found in connective tissues, while elastase breaks down elastin, providing elasticity to tissues. This product has been used as a molecular tool for various biochemical applications. It has also been used in a wide array of other chemical and immunological applications. Custom bulk amounts of this product are available upon request.

    Products are for in vitro research use only (RUO).

Dual-activity enzyme blend for targeted connective tissue matrix degradation. The Collagenase/Elastase mix (Catalog #B2024100) combines collagenase and elastase in a lyophilized preparation, delivering one unit of enzymatic activity for efficient degradation of extracellular matrix components. Designed for research applications requiring controlled breakdown of collagen and elastin—such as tissue dissociation, matrix remodeling studies, and cell isolation—this enzyme blend enables highly reproducible biochemical workflows in RUO environments.

Collagenase hydrolyzes triple-helical collagen fibers while elastase specifically cleaves elastic proteins, improving flexibility and permeability of tissue samples. The dual-activity system simplifies complex digestion protocols, especially in scenarios where both of these structural proteins must be processed simultaneously—such as organotypic cultures or enzymatic tissue dispersion. Supplied in a stable lyophilized format that retains activity on reconstitution, this blend is optimized for downstream use in proteomics, histology, and 3D cell culture methods.

Manufactured according to biotech-grade standards—with ultrapure water and 0.22 µm filtration—the product ensures low impurity levels. Researchers value the blend for its lot traceability and consistent activity retention post-rehydration. Common applications include preparing single-cell suspensions from solid tissue, facilitating ECM breakdown for biomaterial research, and calibrating proteolytic digestion protocols. Whether for primary cell recovery, tissue remodeling studies, or enzymatic fingerprinting, Collagenase/Elastase offers a dual-function solution with RUO reliability.

Why researchers choose this product:

  • Combined collagenase and elastase activities streamline matrix digestion workflows
  • Lyophilized form preserves enzymatic activity and ease of storage
  • High-purity formulation for reduced background and predictable performance
  • Lot traceable for reproducible RUO use across experiments
  • Highly versatile for tissue dissociation, ECM study, cell isolation, and remodeling assays

Indication for Use:
This product is for Research Use Only (RUO). It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or in vivo applications.
