Neutral Protease NB GMP Grade - For the Extra Boost

Alone or in Combination with other GMP Collagenases

Neutral Protease is a metalloprotease that can cleave peptide bonds in proteins such as collagen, proteoglycan, fibronectin, elastin etc. Due to these properties, it is suitable for the isolation of a broad range of cell types by tissue dissociation. In combination with Collagenase NB 1 GMP GradeNeutral Protease NB GMP Grade is especially suited for isolation of islets of Langerhans from human pancreas. However, Neutral Protease NB GMP Grade can also be used in combination with Collagenase NB 6 GMP Grade for applications like tissue engineering and transplantation into humans which have to meet GMP requirements .
