Concanavalin A Coated Magnetic Beads

Product Introduction:
Concanavalin A (Con A) coated magnetic beads are made by covalently coupling high-quality Con A with superparamagnetic magnetic beads. Con A is a seed lectin of the jack bean plant (Canavalia ensiformis) and has a high affinity for specific sugar residues on certain glycoproteins, particularly terminal α-D-mannosyl and α-D-glucosyl residues. When Con A is coated on magnetic beads, it can selectively bind to glycoproteins or glycolipids containing these specific sugar moieties.

Our Products

Con A coated magnetic beads provided by Alfa Chemistry can quickly, efficiently, and specifically bind to glycosylated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids, and polysaccharides. They can be used for the purification of glycoproteins, as well as for the capture of cells or nuclei. Additionally, they can be used in innovative techniques such as cleavage under targets and release using nuclease and cleavage under targets and tagmentation, which are revolutionary approaches used in chromatin analysis experiments.

You Need to Know

Before using magnetic beads, they should be thoroughly mixed to prevent changes in bead concentration during the usage and to avoid prolonged ultrasound damage to the surface of the magnetic beads.
Before using the magnetic beads, magnetic separation should be carried out and washed 2-3 times with pure water or buffer solution.
Our products need to be used with magnetic separation equipment.
