MagSi-Direct 3.0 (3µm Bead Size)

MagSi-Direct is a complete kit for custom functionalization that includes easy-to-use magnetic silica beads and coating solutions. This kit can be used for the immobilization of a biological molecule to a magnetic support.

With MagSi-Direct, any molecule that interacts with a specific partner can be turned into a powerful new biomagnetic reagent. The coating acts as a nanoglue, using non-specific electron donation from electron-rich groups of the target biomolecule. As a result, M-Beads Direct allows coupling of a wide variety of medium to large biological molecules, ranging from proteins and enzymes to non-protein molecules.

These beads have a mean diameter of 3.0 µm. This size makes them especially suitable for cell capture applications and capture reactions in high volumes or viscous samples.
