RNase A

Product Overview

RNase A is a high-quality ribonuclease enzyme designed for efficient RNA digestion during DNA preparation processes. This ready-to-use solution is DNase-free and quality-controlled, ensuring optimal performance in plasmid purification procedures. It is supplied in a 2.5 ml vial with a concentration of 100 mg/ml (7,000 units/ml), providing 17,500 units per vial. The enzyme is defined by the amount that causes the hydrolysis of RNA at a rate such that the velocity constant equals unity (Kunitz units) at 25°C and pH 5.0. For detailed specifications, please refer to the manufacturer's product page.
