Product news

Merck's Advanced Proteomics Grade SOLu-Trypsin is an exclusive, solution stable enzyme for mass spectrometry. Designed to be stable in solution when refrigerated, SOLu-Trypsin can be used immediately without preparation. Other forms of trypsin require thawing or reconstitution and must be discarded if not used immediately. SOLu-Trypsin allows excess product to be saved for future use, thus eliminating unnecessary waste and cost. SOLu-Trypsin is formulated with a high-purity recombinant trypsin, free of chymotryptic activity, to ensure high fidelity digestion.

Key benefits of SOLu-Trypsin include:

  • Ready to use-no preparation, such as reconstitution or thawing, required
  • Fits seamlessly into established workflow-no need to modify protocols
  • Eliminates waste-remains stable in the refrigerator after use so there is no need to discard excess product
  • Recombinant, porcine sequence-no chymotryptic activity
  • Stable for short-term use at room temperature in an autosampler or on a liquid-handling robot

The SOLu-Trypsin enzyme builds on Merck's innovative portfolio of products for large molecule mass spectrometry.

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
