General Remarks on Isolation Conditions

In general,  the required Collagenase NB concentration depends on tissue type and origin as well as isolation procedure. Suggested concentrations should be considered as starting points and progress of the digestion process should be monitored visually in order to determine the optimal conditions.
We recommend dosing Collagenase NB by activity (PZ units), not by weight. Nordmark guarantees a high lot-to-lot consistency; however, small variations may occur. Therefore, dosing by activity ensures consistent results for your cell isolation process.
