Introduction
With a patented novel technology (patent pending), IMAC SuperSpin tube is supplied as a low cost, single use disposable device that allows rapid purification and screening of histidine-tagged proteins at much less cost. The spin tube is filled with novel metal immobilised chromatography resin of small particles (20 – 50 µm). It gives fast mass transfer rate of target proteins. So decent amount of protein can be captured in a short solid / liquid contact time. Four types of spin tubes are available as Ni SuperSpin, Cu SuperSpin, Co SuperSpin and Zn SuperSpin for fast screening of the best immobilised metal ion to a given target protein. It is a particularly powerful tool in applications such as small-scale purification, high-throughput screening, purification process optimisation etc.
Key benefits:
- Fast purification of tens of protein samples with a standard microcentrifuge
- High protein binding capacity, as very small IMAC particle with slow settling rate is employed to give fast mass transfer
- Very low cost in comparison to similar product in the marketplace
- Optimisation of the binding, washing and elution conditions (e.g. imidazole concentration, pH, salt concentration, detergents etc) in one or two sets of experiments at short period and very low cost
- Direct processing of clarified or unclarified protein sample
- Full operational manual supplied
The fine IMAC particles are very stable and compatible to a variety of chemical reagents (e.g. denaturing reagents and reducing reagents etc).
