Title: Pepsin Powder reforming
Post by: mezrav on November 11, 2019, 06:20:07 AM

I have pepsin powder which is now hydrated due to humidity. I want to convert it back to the powder form. How to do it?

I don't have access to a freeze-dryer . I prefer any cheap procedure other than freeze-dryer .

Incorrect storage of enzymes is very harmful (especially the well-cleaned). It is worth checking the activity of such an enzyme before taking any action to dry it. Pepsin is one of the cheapest enzymes.
