          Protect your protein samples from degradation and preserve their phosphorylation state with our convenient and easy to use protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktails.

          ​You can use different inhibitor combinations for your experiment, as well as water soluble & DMSO versions. Browse the guide below for more information.​

          Protease inhibitor cocktails


          Cell lysates contain endogenous proteases which degrade proteins and can affect sensitivity and reliability in protein expression research. It is therefore common practice to add protease inhibitors to lysate samples to protect proteins of interest. Our protease inhibitor cocktails inhibit a number of proteases including serine, cysteine and aspartic proteases.

          Phosphatase inhibitor cocktails


          ​Approximately 30% of known proteins can be reversibly phosphorylated in order to control a number of cellular processes. Protein kinases predominantly phosphorylate at serine, threonine and tyrosine residues - phosphatases reverse this phosphorylation. When studying these processes and pathways it is therefore essential to preserve the phosphorylation state of these proteins in your samples. Our phosphatase inhibitor cocktails inhibit a number of phosphatases including specific serine/threonine and tyrosine phosphatases as well as non-specific acid and alkaline phosphatases.
