Overview
Our service provides a comprehensive solution for the use of high affinity magnetic beads in various applications, including but not limited to DNA/RNA purification, protein isolation, antibody purification, and nucleic acid extraction. The service is designed to be user-friendly, efficient, and scalable, making it suitable for both small-scale research and large-scale production. Our team of experts ensures that clients receive not only the highest quality products but also expert guidance and support throughout the process.
Our Services
We offer a flexible suite of services, from individual process steps to complete, turnkey solutions.
Custom Bead Conjugation
- Not all research fits a standard mold. If your target molecule requires a specific ligand, we can help. Our custom conjugation service allows you to link your molecule of choice—be it a peptide, small molecule, or custom antibody—to our high-quality magnetic beads. We have extensive experience with various conjugation chemistries, including carbodiimide, maleimide, and click chemistry, ensuring the highest coupling efficiency and stability.
Biomolecule Isolation and Purification
- This is the core of our service. We offer a complete workflow for isolating and purifying a wide range of biomolecules.
- Antibody and Protein Purification: Using beads coated with protein A, protein G, or custom antigens, we can efficiently purify antibodies from serum, ascites fluid, or cell culture supernatant. We can also isolate specific proteins from complex lysates for downstream analysis.
- Nucleic Acid Extraction: Our service provides a highly efficient method for the extraction of DNA and RNA from a variety of sample types, including blood, tissue, and microbial cultures. The magnetic bead-based method is faster and safer than traditional organic extraction methods.
- Cell Isolation: We can selectively isolate specific cell populations from a heterogeneous mixture using antibody-conjugated beads. This is particularly valuable for flow cytometry, cell culture, or downstream molecular analysis.
Immunoaffinity Enrichment
- For applications requiring the isolation of low-abundance proteins or post-translational modifications, our immunoaffinity enrichment service is invaluable. We can pull down target proteins using specific antibodies conjugated to magnetic beads, providing a concentrated and pure sample for mass spectrometry or Western blotting. This method significantly improves detection limits and provides cleaner data.
Magnetic Bead-Based ELISA and Immunoassays
- We can adapt your existing immunoassay to a magnetic bead format, offering several advantages. The high surface area of the beads increases binding capacity and signal intensity. The simple wash steps reduce background noise and improve assay precision. We can help you develop and validate new bead-based immunoassays for high-throughput screening or diagnostic applications.
Application
Our services are applicable to a broad range of research and clinical fields.
- Proteomics: Isolation of specific proteins or protein complexes for mass spectrometry-based proteomic studies.
- Genomics: Purification of DNA/RNA for next-generation sequencing (NGS), PCR, and other molecular biology applications.
- Drug Discovery: High-throughput screening of drug candidates using bead-based assays.
- Diagnostics: Development of sensitive and specific diagnostic assays for disease markers.
- Cell Biology: Isolation of specific cell types for cell culture or downstream analysis.
