Application: The aldehyde activated agarose beads allow the covalent binding of agarose to the amino groups of the chosen biomolecule (peptides, enzymes, antibodies etc.)

Introduction: BioBharati Activated Agarose Bead is aldehyde containing cross-linked agarose bead, which can be coupled with the side chain amino group of the lysine residue in any protein. The bead is also suitable for preparation of antibody-agarose affinity matrix through coupling with amine group in antibody Fc region. Such covalent coupling of protein/antibody makes the affinity matrix highly stable under a wide range of biochemical reaction conditions. BioBharati activated-agarose beads have coupling efficiency of 8-10 mg of protein (maximum) under optimum conditions. This aldehyde generated activated agarose bead is not suitable for coupling with sulphhydryl (-SH) group or hydroxyl (-OH) group.

Storage Temperature: 4°C
