Testing IndicatorsAppearance — Visual inspection; Purity — SDS-PAGE (Silver staining); Identity — Western Blot (anti-Isopullulanase antibody) / LC-MS/MS; Specific Activity — Reducing sugar assay (Somogyi-Nelson) with pullulan as substrate (pH 3.5, 40°C); pH Optimum — Buffer system assay (pH 3.0-9.0); Temperature Optimum — Activity assay (20-60°C); Glycosylation check — PNGase F treatment followed by SDS-PAGE shift assay; Endotoxin — LAL test (for biotech grade).
Storage NotesStore below -10°C for long-term stability. Supplied in 50% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Stable for >4 years at 4°C when stored in 50% glycerol.
Lead Time10 days
Specifically hydrolyzes pullulan to isopanose (6-α-maltosylglucose). Used in the structural analysis of oligosaccharides containing α-1,4 and α-1,6 glycosidic linkages, and in the preparation of functional oligosaccharides. Shows no activity on starch.
