What Is Pepsin?
Pepsin (CAS 9001-75-6) is the principal acidic protease of gastric juice, commonly catalogued as Pepsin A (EC 3.4.23.1). It is produced from the inactive precursor pepsinogen and is active at low pH. As a protein enzyme, it does not have a single small-molecule formula; catalog molecular weight is about 35 kDa. Always match CAS 9001-75-6 on the batch COA.
Supplier and biochemical literature describe pepsin for protein hydrolysis, antibody Fab / F(ab′)₂ fragment preparation, collagen-related processing, food-protein modification and general protease assays. Porcine gastric mucosa is a common commercial source. Monuo Chemical supplies Pepsin as a specialty enzyme raw material under Custom synthesis, with batch identity documentation (COA / SDS). Finished-product claims, labeling and local regulatory filings remain the customer’s responsibility. Confirm activity units, grade and assay against the batch COA for your intended method.

Handling & Use Notes
- Activity check: Confirm enzyme activity / assay units (e.g., NF ratio or Anson units if listed) on the batch COA before use.
- pH control: Pepsin is active at acidic pH; verify pH and buffer compatibility for your method.
- Storage: Enzymes are often moisture- and temperature-sensitive; keep sealed and follow the batch COA / SDS (cold storage may be recommended).
- Safety: Follow the SDS for storage, PPE and waste handling. Use the batch SDS as the controlling safety document.
