Magnetic IMAC resins

Introduction


Magnetic IMAC (immobilised metal affinity chromatography) resin is typically useful in purifying small quantity low concentration histidine-tagged proteins. For example, when 10 – 50 µl of resin is required for protein purification, it is difficult to handle such small quantities in columns. Magnetic IMAC resins can be easily processed with the aid of a magnet. The liquid / solid separation required in each purification step (e.g. equilibration, binding, washing and elution) is readily achieved with the aid of a magnet (e.g. magnetic stirring bar or other commercial magnetic devices).

Key benefits:

  • Tailored base matrix design for batch magnetic purification of proteins
  • High binding capacity (could be over 40 mg/ml)
  • Simple and convenient operation, no chromatography training required
  • Flexible operational conditions
  • Low cost
  • A choice of three types of immobilised metal ions available
  • Very low metal leakage
  • Full operation manual (including purification conditions) supplied
