In thermodynamics the system is a specific part of the universe that is being studied,often the system is a chemical reaction. The surroundings are all parts of the universe that arenot the system, typically everything outside the test tube.Â¥ An open system can exchange both energy and matter with its surroundings.
Pepsin is commonly used in the preparation of F(ab')2 fragments from antibodies. In some assays it is preferable to use only the antigen binding (Fab) portion of the antibody. For these applications, antibodies may be enzymatically digested to produce either an Fab or an F(ab')2 fragment of the antibody.
Pepsin is an enzyme which is secreted by Zymogen cells of  the stomach. First it is secreted in an inactive form called  Pepsinogen. After that Hydrochloric acid (HCl) activ â¦ ates it  into pepsin.FUNCTION:   Its function is to hydrolyse the proteins to yield peptide.epsin is a protease, i.e. an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of proteins. In humans, it is secreted by certain cells (called chief cells) in the lining of the stomach. Specifically, pepsin breaks the peptide bonds linking amino acids in the chains found in proteins. Pepsin cannot break all peptide bonds, however.
