Description
Bio Basic’s Lysozyme for Molecular Biology is a high-purity, triple-crystallized enzyme designed for efficient cell wall lysis, particularly in Gram-positive bacteria. With a protein content of ≥90% and specific activity ≥20,000 units per milligram, this lyophilized preparation is ideal for DNA extraction, structural biology, and proteomics workflows. The enzyme hydrolyzes the β(1→4) glycosidic bonds between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in bacterial cell walls, and is also effective on chitosan oligomers.
