MIXGO(TM) SUB-MICRON

Application

Activation and coupling of particles 0.5 µm to 1 µm in diameter

Features and Benefits

Water based, activation and coupling reagent for particles 0.5 µm to 1 µm in diameter An alternative to traditional chemistries such as NHS/EDC methods with an easier to use AnteoBind protocol Reduce reagent preparation time by 3-4 hours Increase antibody functionality Low background noise High reproducibility between experiments

General description

AnteoBind Sub-Micron was developed for binding antibodies and other proteins magnetic particles from 0.5 µm to 1 µm in size. It forms strong multi-valent interactions with almost any electron donating groups including carboxylic acids. Once proteins are added, AnteoBind activated particles rapidly form very strong but gentle binding interactions in the order of minutes.AnteoBind Sub-Micron has been used to stably activate many particles. Examples include MyOne Dynabeads^®, Estapor^® M1 and EM1 particles.AnteoBind Sub-Micron has many advantages over existing methods such as EDC/NHS chemistry or alternative ″pre-activated″ methods such as Epoxy or Tosyl. AnteoBind is water based and replaces the dry chemicals you would use with the EDC method. Using AnteoBind instead of NHS/EDC chemistry can save up to 3-4 hours of lab time. Experiments have shown increased stability and functionality for antibodies and a decreased background. AnteoBind improves reproducibility between experiments by providing uniformity between surfaces. For particles larger than 1 ·m the recommended AnteoBind product is AnteoBind Micro.
