Pierce™ Protease Inhibitor XL Capsules, EDTA-free - FAQs

Q: Can I use just part of the Pierce Protease Inhibitor XL Capsules, EDTA-Free and save part of the capsule for later use?

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. Find additional tips, troubleshooting help, and resources within our Protein Purification and Isolation Support Center .

What formats of protease inhibitors do you offer?

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.
