Automated Magnetic Separations for Proteomics
Accelerate proteomics workflow throughput (HTS) using magnetic separations.
|
|
Speed and sample purity are major concerns for proteomics researchers. The amount of work required for proteomic analysis necessitates higher sample- and data-processing throughput. Magnetic particles comprise a convenient solid support for a variety of assays and procedures based on affinity purification. Paramagnetic beads are especially well suited for automated procedures because instrumentation exists to easily mix, incubate and separate the particles in 96-well plates without columns or centrifugation. Such ease of manipulation enables rapid processing of many samples and seemless integration and compatibility with entire workflows.

Automation-validated Magnetic Beads
Thermo Scientific Pierce Magnetic Beads are specially designed and validated for use with automated magnetic particle processors. We offer glutathione and titanium dioxide magnetic beads for reliable and quick sample purification of the respective affinity targets. The high-performance, iron oxide, superparamagnetic particles are validated and optimized for use with high-throughput magnetic platforms, such as the Thermo Scientific KingFisher Flex Magnetic Particle Processor.

Broad Instrument Compatibility
Our Pierce Magnetic Beads are also compatible with other instrumentation designed for magnetic particle processing (see table below). The beads also enable premium performance for simple benchtop applications using an appropriate magnetic stand. (Thermo Scientific MagnaBind Beads are suitable for primarily manual purification methods and are available in several additional formats, including streptavidin and amine-derivatized forms.)
