Description

NHS-Activated Separopore® provides a valuable tool for affinity purification of antibodies, antigens and other biomolecules.

Applications:

  • Rapid immobilization of antibodies and other proteins to the matrix.
  • Immobilization of ligands through primary amines to purify recombinant proteins.
  • Immobilization of Protein A or Protein G for monoclonal antibody purification.
  • Pre-activated medium for immobilization of ligands containing a primary amino group.
  • N-hydroxyl succinimide (NHS) ester forms a stable amide (peptide) bond with the primary amines of ligands.
  • The stability of an amide bond at high pH (up to pH 13) allows for a very stringent wash protocol during affinity purification using NHS-activated ligand coupling.
  • Coupling can be carried out in neutral pH which makes it ideal for immobilization of antibodies, antigens, and other proteins sensitive to pH extremes.
  • Coupling reaction can also be carried out in organic solvents.
  • Provides a 10 atom spacer arm upon ligand coupling.
  • Coupling completed after 2 – 4 h at room temperature.

Note: Separopore® is a cost-effective equivalent to Sepharose® in all of its physical properties and binding characteristics.

Technical specifications:

  • Group to be coupled: Primary -NH2
  • Chemical linkage of ligand: Amide bond
