These antibiotics have a common element in their molecular structure: a four-atom ring known as a beta-lactam. The lactamase enzyme breaks that ring open, deactivating the molecule''s antibacterial properties. | 
| Synonyms | b-Lactamase, EC 3.5.2.6, TEM precursor. | 
| Source | Escherichia Coli. | 
| Physical Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. | 
| Formulation | Lyophilized from a concentrated (1 mg/ml) solution in water containing 20mM Phosphate buffer pH-7. | 
| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Beta Lactamase in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | 
| Stability | Lyophilized Beta Lactamase althoµgh stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Beta Lactamase Recombinant should be storedat 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
