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.
BcMag™ Strong Anion Exchange (SAX) Magnetic Beads are uniform magnetic resins grafted with a high density of quaternary amine functional group (Strong Anion Exchange) on the surface. The strong 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. Additionally, Strong ion exchangers can be effective separation tools when weak ion exchangers fail because the selectivity of weak and strong ion exchangers frequently differ.
Strong 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.
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.
