Benzonase® nuclease degrades all forms of DNA and RNA while having no proteolytic activity. Benzonase® is compatible with BugBuster® and PopCulture® protein extraction reagents and therefore can be added to these reagents to eliminate viscosity and remove nucleic acids from E. coli extracts.

• Degrades all forms of DNA and RNA
• Effective over a wide range of conditions
• Exceptionally high specific activity
• Ideal for removal of nucleic acids from recombinant proteins
• Reduces viscosity, processing time and improves protein yields from cell extracts
