Type AFA Derived from cultures grown in medium completely devoid of animal based components and designed for bioprocessing applications where introduction of potential animal derived pathogens must be prevented. Levels of secondary proteases are similar to Types 1 and 2.
Type 1 Contains average amounts of assayed activities (collagenase, caseinase, clostripain, and tryptic activities). It is generally recommended for fat, adrenal, and liver cells.
Type 2 Contains greater clostripain activity. It is generally used for heart, bone, muscle, thyroid, cartilage, and liver cells.
Type 3 Contains low proteolytic activity. It is usually used for mammary and fetal cells.
Type 4 Contains low tryptic activity. It is commonly used for islets and other applications where receptor integrity is crucial.
CLSPA Chromatographically purified collagenase, which is specifically purified to reduce the caseinase activity and provide high specific activity. It is typically used for pancreatic and parotoid acini isolations and collagen structural analysis.
