Resources
Q1: How can I improve my lysis efficiency?
Zymolyase is very efficient, but here are some tips:
1. Use fresh and early log phase cells, which are more susceptible to the lytic properties of Zymolyase.
2. Using less cells as input can improve overall lysis efficiency.
3. Zymolyase digestion time can also be increased to 2 – 16 hours.
