General description

N-Z-Amine® A is an enzyme digest of casein processed to a high degree of hydrolysis. It is a refined hydrolysate with high solubility and is used as a microbiological nutrient in laboratory media and fermentations. It is a high-quality source of amino acids, vitamins, peptides, and growth promoting substances, produced by the enzymatic digestion of casein.

Application

N-Z-Amine® has been used:
  • to homogenize leaves for the isolation of plasma membranes
  • as a supplement in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium for optimization of alfalfa regeneration system
  • to prepare MOPS low phosphate minimal medium and M9 minimal medium
