General description

Bovine-derived trypsin is a serine protease that specifically cleaves peptide bonds at the carboxyl side of lysine and arginine residues. The USP Trypsin Bovine standard ensures enzymatic activity and purity, making it suitable for tissue dissociation, proteomics workflows, and cell culture applications.

The USP biologics proteins category provides critical standards and reference materials necessary for the development and manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. These proteins, which can be naturally derived or genetically engineered, are essential in treating various diseases and conditions, ensuring that they meet quality, safety, and efficacy standards.

The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) provides quality standards for biologics to ensure their safety, efficacy, and quality throughout the manufacturing process. These standards assist manufacturers in adhering to regulatory requirements and help safeguard public health by reducing risks associated with biologics.
