Prionex® 10%

Prionex® is a 10% aqueous solution of a polypeptide fraction of highly purified dermal collagen of porcine origin which has excellent protein stabilizing properties. Prionex® is prepared by partial hydrolysis and is terminally sterilized. It is free from cartilage, bone and plasma components and is therefore a pure form of partially hydrolyzed gelatine type A. The average molecular weight is approx. 20’000 Da, estimated by gel permeation chromatography. Prionex® is freely soluble in water, diluted electrolyte solutions, glycerol and DMSO as well as in diluted ethanol and ammonium sulphate solutions below 20% saturation. Storage: 15 - 25°C, protected from light - Optimizes stability of biological activity - Improves conditions for lyophilisation and heat treatment - Avoids denaturation by chaotropic agents or solvents - Extends shelf life for enzymes and proteins - High consistency stabilizer - Non-toxic and non-antigenic - Free from nucleic acids, polysaccharides and lipids - Free from any additives
