ProClin™ Preservatives

ProClin™ preservatives attack the Krebs cycle at four key points: the enzymes pyruvate dehydrogenase, α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, and NADH dehydrogenase. Because all bacteria and fungi possess at least part of the Krebs cycle, they are broad spectrum in their activity.

ProClin™ preservatives are readily available in convenient pack sizes suitable for all manufacturing processes and volumes. Along side our four formulations, we also provide ProClin™ support products like a ProClin™ reference standard and a ProClin™ variety kit, useful in testing and evaluating the use of ProClin™ preservative within a specific diagnostic reagent or assay.

The ProClin™ Variety Kit (48119-U) contains 5 mL bottles of all four formulations and is an excellent tool for evaluating the suitability of ProClin™ products for their specific applications. See the characteristic differentiators between the formulations in our technical chart. Want to see how ProClin™ preservatives benefit your reagent? Request a sample.

Despite the enhanced safety profile of ProClin™ products, a study from an independent lab has shown equivalent or improved efficacy when compared to top alternatives like thimerosal and sodium azide. 

ProClin™ preservatives are restricted to use in IVD assay development and are intended for use in IVD manufacturing only.
