Shipping and Storage

This product should be stored at -25 ~ -15℃ for 1 year.

Store this enzyme at -20°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve catalytic activity. The product is shipped Dry Ice and remains stable for up to one year from the date of manufacture when stored under recommended conditions. Aliquoting the stock solution into single-use volumes is recommended for enzymes used infrequently to minimize thermal cycling of the bulk stock.

Always verify compatibility with your specific template, buffer, and downstream workflow.

One unit (U) is defined as the amount of enzyme that catalyzes the incorporation of 10 nmol of deoxyribonucleotide into acid-insoluble material in 30 min under standard assay conditions.

This enzyme is produced as Recombinant (E. coli) and supplied as a Research Use Only (RUO) reagent. Each lot is subjected to activity assay, purity assessment by SDS-PAGE, and functional validation prior to release. A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) are available on request.

This enzyme is produced recombinantly in E. coli under stringent quality controls and validated on multiple substrate types. Key performance parameters include specific activity, substrate specificity, cofactor requirements, optimal pH/temperature range, and compatibility with downstream assays. Refer to the product datasheet for validated lot-specific activity data and recommended reaction conditions.
