Accutase is a natural enzyme mixture for detachment of adherent cells or dissociation of primary cells from tissues. Accutase can be used for most cells, even human mesenchymal stem cell or human neural stem cell.
Features
- Natural enzyme mixture with proteolytic and collagenolytic enzyme activity
- Works gently and promptly
- Mimics the action of trypsin and collagenase at the same time.
- High cell viability
- Non-mammalian and Non-bacterial components included.
- Ready to Use format (prepared by Dulbecco's PBS with 0.5 mM EDTA・4Na and phenol red).
- No need to be neutralized when passaging adherent cells.

Fig. 1 Human MG63 Fibrosarcoma cells cultured in DMEM + 10% FBS were treated with Accutase. Cell viability was measured by each different treated time. Treatment resulted in rapid cell detachment, a single cell suspension, and high viability. Accutase is gentle on cells; viability was 97 ± 3% even after 45 minutes in Accutase.

Fig. 2 Human ES cells are treated with Accutase or Collagenase and cryopreserved. After stored in liquid nitrogen for two months and cultured, total cell numbers and live cells numbers are counted after a day. Accutase treated cells (green) has superior cell viability compared to collagenase treated cells.
Protocol Overview
- Carefully aspirate the medium from cultured dish/well/flask.
- Add enough amount of Accutase to cover the cells.
- Incubate for 5 to 10 minutes at room temperature. (up to a maximum of 1 hour)
- Check the cells frequently to see if they have rounded and no longer attached to the bottom of dish/well/flask.
- Count the cells and passage. No need to add enzyme inhibitors or rinse.
