Product Name:

Conjugation Kit for Hi-Sur Mag Carboxyl Magnetic Beads (1 µm)

Catalog Number:

8CHK-1

We used this kit to couple oligos to the beads for nucleic acids extraction. The recovery rate/extraction efficiency is excellent, the beads are easy to handle, do not stick to tubes and the magnetic strength is strong.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Nucleic acid purification/enrichment

Tips

May need to modify the coupling protocol provided with the kit.

Results Summary

Overall, very good beads for my experiments. However, this is achieved by using our own coupling protocol, with higher EDC concentration, higher reaction temperature, and stringent washing after coupling, compared to the protocols provided with the kit.

Summary

The Good

Easy to handle, high efficiency, high capacity

The Bad

Read the protocol carefully, it make contain some confusing description due to copy/paste.

The Bottom Line

Very good source of magnetic beads for oligo coupling/nucleic acid extraction.
