Purpose | Protein A Sepharose Columns can be used for IgG purification and immunoprecipitation |
Characteristics |
Protein A Sepharose is prepared by covalently coupling recombinant Protein A to 6 % cross-linked sepharose beads. The coupling technique is optimized to give a high binding capacity for IgG. The capacity of IgG binding could be up to 25 mg of human IgG per mL of wet bead. BINDING CAPACITY: Binding of IgG ≥ 16 mg human or rabbit IgG/ml Protein A-Sepharose. FLOW RATE TESTED: 2.07 ml/min USAGE: Reusable for up to 10 times without significant loss of binding capacity. |
ProductDetails: Bead Ligand | Protein A |
ProductDetails: Bead Matrix | Sepharose beads |
ProductDetails: Bead Size | 90 μm |
Application Notes |
- Purification of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies from culture media, serum, ascites fluid or hybridoma supernatants. - Isolation of antibody/antigen complexes in immunoprecipitation experiments, since only the Fc region is involved in antibody binding andthe Fab region is available for binding antigen. |
Comment |
Protein A-Sepharose beads are prepared by covalently coupling recombinant Protein A to 6% cross-linked Sepharose beads. The coupling technique is optimized to give a higher binding capacity for IgG & minimum leaching of recombinant Protein A. The IgG binding capacity of Protein A-Sepharose is ≥ 16 mg human or rabbit IgG per ml of wet beads. |
