On an OEM basis, MagaPhase particles can be manufactured to meet your custom specifications. MagaCell is an excellent solid-phase support for the immobilization of antibodies, enzymes, and other bioreactive proteins. MagaCell has a large porous surface which offers a high capacity for binding large quantities of biomolecules. MagaCell's vicinal hydroxyl groups are activated by employing well-established surface chemistries including cyanogen bromide, carbodiimidazole, epoxide, and periodate. This product has a hard, hydrophobic, non-porous surface, making it an ideal solid support for immobilization of biomolecules where a high capacity surface is required.
Magnetizable charcoal is suitable for use in the uptake of small molecular weight analytes.
Applications include uptake of free antigen fractions in binding assays and adsorption of haptens from biological fluids. These include Streptavidin, Protein A, Protein G, and affinity purified species-specific secondary antibodies coupled to MagaCell or MagaBeads. These products are designed for fast, easy, and efficient separation of proteins, enzymes, and nucleic acid fragments. For example, samples are not required to be free of cellular debris or other insoluble material, since no columns are required. Washing and elution steps are simply and rapidly achieved by using a standard magnet.
