Corning™ 0.05% Trypsin/0.53mM EDTA in HBSS w/o Calcium, Magnesium or Sodium Bicarbonate

Description

Trypsin is used to enzymatically release adherent cells from tissue culture plates for passaging.  Divalent cations such as calcium and magnesium, which are often present in the cell culture environment, inhibit this action.  EDTA sequesters these ions and thus enhances the efficacy of trypsin.  This product contains trypsin at a concentration of 0.05% with 0.53 mM EDTA, and does not contain sodium bicarbonate.
