Description

Asparaginase is a vital enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-asparagine to L-aspartic acid and ammonia. This specific biochemical action is critical for applications where the depletion of asparagine is required, making it an indispensable tool in several high-value industries. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, as well as research institutions. Our supply of Asparaginase CAS NO 9015-68-3 is characterized by consistent quality and reliable performance to meet stringent industrial demands.

Application

• Oncological Therapeutics: As a key active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and other lymphomas.
• Food Processing: Used to reduce acrylamide formation in starch-based foods like potato chips, French fries, and baked goods by converting free asparagine.
• Biochemical Research: Employed as a critical reagent in cell culture media studies, metabolic pathway analysis, and enzyme kinetics research.
• Diagnostic Kits: Incorporated into in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) kits for the clinical measurement of asparagine levels in biological samples.
• Biosensor Development: Utilized as a biological component in biosensors for monitoring food safety and environmental contaminants.
