Trypsin 0.25 % / EDTA 0.02 % in DPBS w/o Ca & Mg, with Phenol red – Trypsin Cell Detachment Solution
Trypsin 0.25 % / EDTA 0.02 % in DPBS w/o Ca & Mg, with Phenol red, ready-to-use trypsin cell detachment solution
RUO (P10-019100)
Trypsin 0.25 % / EDTA 0.02 % in DPBS w/o Ca & Mg, with Phenol red is a ready-to-use cell detachment solution containing 0.25 % trypsin and 0.02 % EDTA, formulated in DPBS without calcium and magnesium, with phenol red. Trypsin is a porcine pancreas-derived enzyme (1:250) that dissociates anchorage-dependent cells; EDTA is added to chelate calcium and magnesium and enhance trypsin activity. The phenol red indicator lets you follow the solution visually during handling. After detachment, trypsin should be neutralised with serum-containing medium or a trypsin inhibitor.
Reliable trypsin detachment for routine passaging. 0.25 % trypsin with 0.02 % EDTA in DPBS, Ca/Mg-free for effective dissociation.
Why Trypsin 0.25 % / EDTA 0.02 % in DPBS w/o Ca & Mg, with Phenol red
- Effective dissociation – porcine trypsin (1:250) for anchorage-dependent cells.
- EDTA-enhanced – EDTA chelates Ca/Mg to boost trypsin activity.
- DPBS base, Ca/Mg-free – formulated to support efficient trypsinisation.
- Neutralise after use – stop with serum-containing medium or trypsin inhibitor.

How is Trypsin 0.25 % / EDTA 0.02 % in DPBS w/o Ca & Mg, with Phenol red used?
Aspirate medium, rinse the monolayer with Ca/Mg-free salt solution, add enough pre-warmed trypsin to cover the cells and incubate until they round up and detach; then neutralise, centrifuge and resuspend in fresh medium.
How is Trypsin 0.25 % / EDTA 0.02 % in DPBS w/o Ca & Mg, with Phenol red stored?
Store the solution at -20 °C. Stable 2 years from production.
