An Automated Solution to Antibody Purifications

  The Maxwell® 16 LEV RNA FFPE Purification Kit is designed to extract RNA rapidly from FFPE samples using the Maxwell® 16 Instrument (Cat.# AS2000 and AS3000).   The FFPE kit is specifically designed for optimal purification of RNA from 5μm thin sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples. The Maxwell® 16 LEV RNA FFPE Purification Kit is optimized to yield a final RNA concentration that maximizes RNA yield, eliminating the need to concentrate the extract prior to amplification. Lysates are placed directly into the cartridges, and RNA ready for amplification is obtained in approximately 60 minutes (after proteinase K digest). This kit does not use hazardous xylene, thereby providing a much safer method than many competitive kits. Additionally, quality testing demonstrates virtually no PCR inhibitors in purified samples. Features & Benefits: Automated Platform for Extracting RNA from FFPE Mammalian Tissues: Provides an alternative to manual competitive offerings. Walkaway Automated Extraction from up to 16 Samples in a Single Run: Provides superior ease of use over competition. Provides High Yield, Pure and Amplifiable RNA from FFPE Mammalian Tissue Samples: Minimizes sample waste and reruns. Simple Method with No Organic Solvents for Deparaffinization: No exposure to toxic organic reagents to deparaffinize the FFPE tissue sample prior to RNA purification. Decreased Processing Time: Protocol can be completed within a single 8-hour shift. Applications: Automated RNA purification from FFPE samples.

Magne™ Protein G and Magne™ Protein A Beads are magnetic affinity beads with high specificity and high capacity for purification of immunoglobulins from cell culture media, ascites and serum samples.   These paramagnetic beads are composed of iron encapsulated in macroporous cellulose with low nonspecific binding. The magnetic beads use a novel attachment chemistry to immobilize recombinant Protein G or Protein A protein molecules in the same orientation on the surface of the bead. The oriented attachment is known to improve the functionality of immobilized proteins. These beads offer a convenient method for achieving high purity and high recovery of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies from a variety of biological samples. The superb magnetic properties of Magne™ Protein G and Magne™ Protein A Beads allow rapid and efficient capture of antibodies either with manually processed samples or in a high-throughput manner using the Promega ReliaPrep™ LV 32 HSM Instrument or a robotic platform such as the Beckman Coulter Biomek® FX. Magne™ Protein A and Magne™ Protein G Beads:   High purity and rapid, efficient antibody recovery Low nonspecific binding Ease of handling and cost effectiveness High binding capacity1 (≥25mg) of the beads for Protein A and Protein G Optimized performance
