Merck, 11873580001, cOmplete™, EDTA-free Protease Inhibitor Cocktail

cOmplete, EDTA-free Protease Inhibitor Tablets, inhibit a broad spectrum of serine and cysteine proteases. In contrast to other cOmplete tablets they do not contain EDTA, leaving the stability and the function of metal-dependant proteins unaffected. The affinity purification of Poly-His-tagged fusion proteins using IMAC (Immobilized Metal Affinity Chromatography) is also facilitated (no dialysis necessary). Due to the optimized composition of the tablets, they show excellent inhibition of serine and cysteine proteases, and are well suited for the protection of proteins isolated from animal tissues, plants, yeast, and bacteria. cOmplete, EDTA-free tablets, contains both irreversible and reversible protease inhibitors. Metallo- and aspartic proteases are not inhibited. cOmplete EDTA-free Tablets are identical to cOmplete Tablets, the only difference being that no EDTA or other chelating (e.g. EGTA) agents are included.
