New from Zymo Research: Zymolyase Ultra

Efficient Yeast & Fungi Lysis in 10 Minutes!

With 30 years of experience, Zymo Research manufactures DNA/RNA extraction and purification products for E. coli and yeast. The company is excited to announce the launch of their latest development: Zymolyase Ultra is a superior lytic enzyme for digestion of yeast and fungal cell walls.

Digestion of yeast and fungal cell walls is necessary for many experimental procedures. Lytic enzymes like Zymolyase, Lyticase, Glucanase or Chitinase are routinely used for digestion of cell walls. Distinguished from conventional lytic enzymes, Zymolyase Ultra is a novel formulation of enzyme that is optimized for efficient yeast cell wall digestion. It contains enzymes that can degrade several different components of yeast cell walls. It is extensively purified using a novel DNA/RNA removal technology that results in extremely low nucleic acid contamination. It is suitable for qPCR and sequencing-based assays where low DNA/RNA contamination is critical.

Zymolyase Ultra is a novel formulation that is optimized for efficient yeast cell wall digestion. It contains enzymes that degrade several different components of yeast cell walls. It is extensively purified using a novel DNA/RNA removal technology that results in extremely low nucleic acid contamination.

Highlights for Zymolyase Ultra:

Ultra Efficient: 50x more efficient than lyticase.
Ultra Low-Bioburden: Up to 70x less DNA contamination compared to other suppliers.
Convenient to Use: Dissolves in water and stable for multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Over 50x More Efficient Than Lyticase!	Up to 7000% LESS DNA Contamination!

1-50 U Zymolyase Ultra or Lyticase were used to test lysing 8 x 107 C. albicans cells at 37°C for 30 min.	Bacterial and fungal DNA contamination was measured using Zymo Research Femto Bacterial DNA Quantification Kit (ZYM-E2006) and Femto Fungal DNA Quantification Kit (ZYM-E2007), respectively. The measurements were converted to genomic DNA copies/Unit enzyme in each assay and then combined for total DNA content.
