General description

Crude collagenases are widely used in enzymatic primary cell isolation and tissue dissociation procedures. Most researchers employ either crude collagenase preparations such as Types I, II, III, and IV or chromatographically purified collagenase. Dispase is especially suitable for tissue disaggregation and subcultivation procedures since it does not damage cell membranes. EMD Millipore’s Animal Free Collagenase/Dispase Blend II is a mixture of animal free collagenase, type B, and neutral protease/dispase, and is inteneded to be used when a more potent enzymatic dissociatation solution than collagnaease is desired. The product is prepared and purified from cultures grown in medium completely devoid of animal based components and designed for bioprocessing applications where introduction of animal derived pathogens, such as BSE,TSE and other mammalian viruses, must be prevented.
Product Source: Isolated and purified from Clostridium histolyticum and Bacillus polymyxa cultures devoid of animal containing reagents.
This product is manufactured in an ISO9001:2008 certified enviroment.

Questions

  1. What should the working concentration be for cell isolation? And are there any special protocol for resuspending it? Once resuspended should it still be stored in 2-8deg C or should it be stored in -20deg C?

    1 answer
    1. This product may be reconstituted with PBS or media of choice at 1 mg/ml. The addition of Human Serum Albumin at 1% is recommended as a stabilizer. Upon reconstitution, the product solution can be sterile filtered through a 0.22 µm pore size membrane. The solution should be then aliquoted and stored frozen at -20C or -80C. It is expected to be stable for 3-6 months.

      The protocol may vary with the type of tissue, the age of the animal, or other variables. The end-user would need to adjust the temperature and incubation time, but the general recommendation is to digest at 37 deg C for 15 - 30 minutes. For protocol/concentration to be used, it may be helpful to review the literature.
