Dissociation Reagents

MCE 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA (1x), phenol red consists of dried trypsin powder dissolved in EDTA. MCE Trypsin hydrolyzes intercellular proteins and disperses primary tissues or adherent cells into individual cells, and can be widely used for cell dissociation, cell culture passaging and primary tissue dissociation.

MCE 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA (1×), Phenol Red-Free, is prepared by dissolving trypsin powder (a mixture of proteases from porcine pancreas, irradiated and sterilized) and EDTA in a calcium- and magnesium-free balanced salt solution. It is filter-sterilized and can be directly used for the dissociation of cultured cells and tissues.

MCE Red Blood Cell Lysis Buffer (10×) primarily contains ammonium chloride and is a ready-to-use solution designed for rapid and effective lysis and removal of anucleated red blood cells from human or mouse blood and tissue samples without affecting white blood cells, normal tissues, or tumor cells.
