Pierce Protease and Phosphatase Inhibitor Mini Tablets,EDTA-free - FAQs

We do not recommend “splitting” the capsule into smaller portions. Researchers using less than 500 mL should choose a different format (liquid or tablet) of protease inhibitors.

We offer standalone protease inhibitors (AEBSF, Aprotinin, PMSF, EDTA, etc.), as well as cocktails or combinations of protease inhibitors in liquid, tablet, and larger capsule formats. These cocktails of protease inhibitors can also be purchased in combination with a cocktail of phosphatase inhibitors, in both liquid and tablet form, for even greater convenience.

The Pierce protease, phosphatase, as well as (protease and phosphatase) inhibitor tablets and mini tablets are stable for at least one year when stored at 4 degrees C, but we only recommend preparing fresh solutions just before needed. If you are interested in liquid protease or phosphatase inhibitors, please use our inhibitor cocktails (https://www.thermofisher.com/search/results?query=protease%20inhibitor%20cocktails&focusarea=Search%20All).

The Pierce protease, phosphatase, as well as (protease and phosphatase) inhibitors are offered as mini tablets, with or without EDTA. Each mini tablet is sufficient for 10 mL of solution and is suitable for reagent preparation prior to protein extraction for cultured cells and tissues. In addition, the Pierce protease inhibitor tablets are offered with or without EDTA and each tablet is sufficient for 50 mL of solution.
