Prionex(R)

Prionex® is a 10% aqueous solution of a polypeptide fraction of highly purified dermal collagen of porcine origin which has excellent protein stabilizing properties. Prionex® is prepared by partial hydrolysis and is terminally sterilized. It is free from cartilage, bone and plasma components and is therefore a pure form of partially hydrolyzed gelatine type A. Due to the chemical nature and the standardised quality, Prionex® can be used as an inert protein stabilizer and as an additive for cell culture media. Prionex® is freely soluble in water, diluted electrolyte solutions, glycerol and DMSO as well as in diluted ethanol and ammonium sulphate solutions below 20% saturation.
