Product Description

Eglin C was originally isolated from the leech Hirudo medicinalis [1]. Recombinant N-acetyl-eglin C is a 70 amino acid peptide with identical biological activity to native eglin C. An effective inhibitor of chymotrypsin and subtilisin as well as of leukocyte elastase and cathepsin G.
