PureProteome™ Nickel Magnetic Beads from Millipore

7 May 2008

Millipore Corporation, a Life Science leader providing technologies, tools and services for bioscience research and biopharmaceutical manufacturing, today announced the availability of its PureProteome Nickel Magnetic Beads. This powerful separation matrix allows the fast and easy purification of polyhistidine-tagged recombinant proteins, a critical step in protein research.

Millipore’s patented process for magnetizing porous silica particles provides researchers with high binding capacity, high affinity beads for efficient protein purification. Unlike many competitors’ magnetic beads, PureProteome Nickel Magnetic Beads bind recombinant protein even in the presence of EDTA, a metal ion chelator. Compared to other magnetic beads, Millipore’s beads offer higher purity while yielding comparable amounts of protein.

Millipore has evolved from a high performance filtration products and services company into a leading provider of tools and services and a key partner of choice for Life Science customers. We’ve transformed ourselves through R&D investment, organic growth, and acquisitions such as Chemicon, Upstate, Linco, Celliance, Newport Bio Systems, NovAseptic AB and MicroSafe. The integrated Millipore offers more innovative technologies and stronger application support to streamline processes and provide consistently reliable results. The expert scientists in our Life Sciences business unit understand the complexity of Life Science research and can support our customers in their most difficult challenges in cell biology, stem cells, protein research, and cell signaling.
