What About More Dilute Zymolyase Resuspensions?

We recommend using Zymolyase resuspension buffer if resuspending Cost Plus Zymolyase 100T 400U or 800U in volumes greater than 500 or 1000 microliters respectively.

Unit (U) definition: 0.018 +/- 0.006 mg of Zymolyase with the ability to digest 6 mg of brewers yeast within 2 hours at 25 degrees celsius. A measurement of confirmation can be determined as a 30% decrease in absorbance @ 800nm wavelength.

Why pay more when you can get virtually the same enzyme solution at generic prices?

Stability
2°C No loss of activity was found after storage for 1 year
Heat stability
30°C 90% of the lytic activity is lost after storage for 3 months
60°C Lytic activity is lost on incubation for 5 minutes
Specifi city (Lytic Spectrum)
Ashbya, Candida, Debaryomyces, Eremothecium, Endomyces, Hansenula, Hanseniaspora, Kloeckera, kluyveromyces, Lipomyces, Metschnikowia, Pichia, Pullularia, Torulopsis, Saccharomyces, Saccharomycopsis, Saccharomycodes, Schwanniomyces, etc.

One unit of lytic activity is defi ned as that amount which indicates 30% of decrease in absorbance at 800 nm (A800) of the reaction mixture under the following condition.

[Reaction Mixture]
Enzyme solution 1 ml (0.012-0.024 mg/ml)
Brewer's yeast cell suspension 3 ml (2 mg/ml)
1/15M Phosphate buffer 5 ml (pH7.5)
Distilled water 1 ml

After incubation for 2 hours at 25°C with gentle shaking, A800 of the mixture is determined. When 60% of A800 decrease, equivalent to 2 units, is observed in the reaction system, the brewer’s yeast cells are completely lysed, namely 1 unit of Zymolyase lyses 3mg dry weight of brewer’s yeast.

  1. Avoid using nitrocellulose filters and use of material other than nitrocellulose when sterilizing. Zymolyase may be adsorbed on nitrocellulose membranes.
  2. Zymolyase-100T may not be completely dissolved in buffers. Use Zymolyasesup as suspension.
  3. When sterilized, Zymolyase is used in a concentration higher than 0.05%, prepare 2% Zymolyase solution in buffers containing 5% glucose, fi lter the suspension and dilute the solution with the appropriate buffer.
