A Guide to Magnetic Bead Coatings from Anteo Technologies and Sepmag: Today and Tomorrow

Bio-functionalized magnetic beads are widely used for capturing specific molecules or cells thanks to their super-paramagnetic properties. They act as the solid phase for both separation processes such as purification of proteins/molecules and for in vitro diagnostics (IVD) reagents. This guidebook intends to summarize the current approaches for magnetic bead coating, as well as the new arising technological solutions that will help to surpass the current technical challenges.
