Hyaluronidase, Streptomyces Hyalurolyticus, 4 X 100 U

Description

This hyaluronidase is purified from Streptomyces hyalurolyticus. This enzyme belongs to the endo-beta-hexosaminidase and endo-eliminase type enzyme that produces oligo-saccharide unsaturated tetraose and pentose by hydrolyzing the beta-1,4-linkage of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronidase is stable in both high temperature and acid or alkaline range. It has high substrate specificity and hydrolyzes hyaluronic acid only in mucopolysaccharide. Enzyme activity is determined by a change in optical density in a hyaluronic acid solution. It is compared to a hyaluronidase International Standard expressed as I.U. See Enzymes and Substrates in the Immunobiologicals section for further details.
