Magnetic Beads fractionate proteins or nucleic acids using beads-adsorbent technology as a chromatographic matrix. Ion exchange chromatography is widely used to separate or purify a target molecule from crude biological materials. The molecules are separated based on variations in their accessible surface charges utilizing very light binding and eluting conditions for intact biological activity.
The PSA (N-propylethylenediamine) bead, like the NH2 magnetic beads, has two amino groups (primary and secondary amines). The two amino groups have higher pKa values (10.1 and 10.9, respectively), so the PSA beads have a higher ion exchange capacity and stronger ion exchange capacity. At the same time, the PSA bonded phase as bidentate ligands, which can produce chelation, a chemical reaction useful in, as a result, PSA has less polar.
BcMag™ PSA Magnetic Beads are uniform magnetic resins grafted with a high density of N- PSA (N-propylethylenediamine) groups on the surface (Fig.1). The weak anion exchange magnetic bead-based format enables rapid high-yield processing of 96 samples in about 20 minutes. It can quickly fraction proteins or nucleic acids from complex biological samples (such as serum, plasma, etc.) manually or automatically. The purified protein can be used in downstream applications such as sample fractionation for 1D and 2D SDS-PAGE, X-ray crystallization, and NMR spectroscopy. The Weak Ion Exchange resins allow the rapid release of very strong ions that may be retained irreversibly on Strong Ion Exchange beads. Additionally, weak ion exchangers can be effective separation tools when strong ion exchangers fail because the selectivity of weak and strong ion exchangers frequently differ.
Weak anion exchange magnetic resins are used to replace time-consuming, complex, and costly chromatographic procedures such as agarose, cellulose, Sepharose, and Sephadex-based columns or resins. In column-based procedures, the lysate is centrifuged or cleared, the supernatant is added to the column, the membrane or resin is washed with buffer through centrifugation or vacuum manifold, and the required biomolecules are eluted in an adequate volume of buffer. When using column-based technologies, processing multiple samples in academic research labs may necessitate a significant quantity of hand pipetting. This pipetting can discourage differences in target biomolecule yield between experiments and people. Staff and students may require extensive training and practice to produce constant protein yields.
Weak anion exchange magnetic resins have significant advantages over non-magnetic resin technologies. It is due to the numerous benefits of magnetic resins, such as their ease of use, rapid experimental protocols, suitability, and convenience for high throughput automated and miniaturized processing. They thus see increasing use in various areas of life-sciences research and development, including drug discovery, biomedicine, bioassay development, diagnostics, genomics, and proteomics.
