Trypsin (Bacterial, 250 U/mg) – 100g

Trypsin is a proteolytic enzyme supplied as bacterial trypsin with an activity rating of 250 U/mg, packaged in a 100g pack for educational laboratory use. This enzyme selectively digests proteins by cleaving peptide bonds, making it a valuable reagent for biology‑focused practical investigations.

Identified by CAS Number: 9002‑07‑7 and with no UN number, trypsin is not classified as hazardous for transport when handled appropriately. The enzyme demonstrates optimal activity within a temperature range of approximately 40 °C to 60 °C, allowing clear and observable results in controlled classroom experiments.

Supplied in solid form for stability and long shelf life, this trypsin preparation can be dissolved as required, giving teachers and technicians flexibility when planning practical lessons.
