Thermo Fisher Scientific Announces New Magnetic Beads to Streamline Purification Methods

Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, announces the availability of Thermo Scientific Pierce Streptavidin Magnetic Beads to streamline the isolation and purification of biotinylated biomolecules, without columns or centrifugation. The iron oxide, superparamagnetic particles offer higher binding capacity and lower nonspecific binding compared to other commercially available magnetic beads.

The Pierce® Streptavidin Magnetic Beads are validated and optimized for use with high throughput magnetic instrumentation, such as the Thermo Scientific KingFisher 96 and KingFisher Flex Instruments. The particles also perform well in manual purification procedures when using an appropriate magnetic stand.

The Pierce Streptavidin Magnetic Beads are available in 1 ml and 5 ml package sizes. The beads are also available in bulk quantities for manufacturing applications. The particles can be stored refrigerated for one year.
