General description
Protease Inhibitor Cocktail for mammalian cell and tissue extracts, in DMSO solution. It contains six individual components for inhibiting serine, cysteine, and acid proteases, and aminopeptidases.
Specificity
Inhibits serine, cysteine, and acid proteases, and aminopeptidases.
Application
Ideal for use as a buffer component during sonication, lysis buffer, and RIPA buffer
Provides protection against endogenous enzyme activity in cell and tissue extracts
Provides protection against endogenous enzyme activity in cell and tissue extracts
Biochem/physiol Actions
This mixture contains individual components, including AEBSF at 104 mM, Aprotinin at 80 μM, Bestatin at 4 mM, E-64 at 1.4 mM, Leupeptin at 2 mM and Pepstatin A at 1.5 mM. Each component has specific inhibitory properties. AEBSF and Aprotinin act to inhibit serine proteases, including trypsin, chymotrypsin, and plasmin amongst others. Bestatin inhibits aminpeptidases. E-64 acts against cystein proteases. Leupeptin acts against both serine and cystein proteases. Pepstatin A inhibits acid proteases.
Features and Benefits
Broad-spectrum inhibition: inhibits multiple classes of proteases and aminopeptidases
Stable storage: supplied as a solution in DMSO, allowing for long-term storage at -20°C
Consistent performance: ready-to-use solution

Is the protease cocktail P8340 supplied as a 100X solution or a 1X solution?
1 answer-
This cocktail is essentially a 100X preparation. One milliliter of this solution is sufficient for the inhibition of endogenous enzymes found in 100 mL of lysate. Please see the link below to review this and additional information available in the product datasheet:

Do we need to add PMSF as well along with this cocktail? I intend to use this for RIPA buffer
1 answer-
PMSF is a serine protease inhibitor. You can certainly add along with the cocktail if needed.

What is the working concentration if adding to the blood?
1 answer-
The recommended amount to use is 1:100 (v:v) directly to the whole blood, but one has to take into consideration that this will disrupt the coagulation cascade. If it is a concern, the protease inhibitor cocktail should be added after separation of the blood components. In the serum use at the same concentration as for blood, 1:100 (v:v)
There are articles citing this product when using blood samples. 1-100 was used in both articles:

How long can this product be stored at -20C?
1 answer-
This product is not assigned an expiration date. It is assigned a recommended retest date of approximately 4 years after the quality release date. A recommended retest date is the period of time during which the product is expected to remain within established stability specifications, provided that it has been stored under defined conditions. The retest date can be found in the lot specific Certificate of Analysis. After the Retest Date, product samples should be examined to ensure that the product is still in compliance with the established specifications.
