Dynabeads Magnetic Beads

Dynabeads products center around the goals to provide reliable and reproducible results for the purification and analysis of cells, proteins, exosomes, DNA, RNA, and other molecules. Dynabeads magnetic beads and products deliver highly cited results in the research industry across multiple application areas. Meanwhile, Thermo Fisher Scientific provides exceptional service and support backed by over 30+ years of knowledge and expertise.

What are Dynabeads magnetic beads?

  • Dynabeads magnetic beads are superparamagnetic particles—they exhibit magnetic properties when placed in a magnetic field but retain no residual magnetism once removed from the magnetic field
  • Unique batch-to-batch reproducibility secures reproducible, quality results
  • Spherical shape and defined surface chemistry minimizes chemical agglutination and non-specific binding
  • Polymer shell on each bead protects your target from toxic exposure to iron
  • Bioreactive molecules can be absorbed or coupled to their surface, and used to separate biological materials (cells, proteins, nucleic acids, etc.)

Dynabeads magnetic beads come in several sizes and different surface functionalities for use in a wide variety of applications. Some beads are precoupled with a biomolecule (ligand). The ligand can be an antibody, protein or antigen, DNA/RNA probe, or any other molecule with an affinity for the desired target.

Description

Dynabeads magnetic bead separation applications

Cell isolation consists of isolating your cell population of interest. Dynabeads kits can be used for positive cell isolation, negative cell isolation, or cell depletion.

T cell activation

Dynabeads products can help activate and expand naïve and memory T cells, T cell clones, regulatory T cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells, and cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) from mouse and human samples.

Precipitate your protein complex of interest with magnetic beads for immunoprecipitation. Dynabeads magnetic beads offer high capacity and yield, low non-specific binding, sensitivity, reproducibility, and cost effectiveness.

Exosome studies

Exosomes are small vesicles that carry and transport RNA and protein. Dynabeads exosome kits and reagents are used for the isolation, detection, and analysis of exosomes.

Streptavidin beads

Streptavidin is a small protein with high affinity. Dynabeads streptavidin magnetic beads are used in the isolation of cells, isolation of proteins, nucleic acid capture, mRNA synthesis, and NGS workflows.

DNA/RNA purification

Nucleic acid isolation and purification is commonly the first step in a molecular biology lab. Dynabeads magnetic beads and kits offer easy-to-follow, paramagnetic bead-based nucleic acid extraction.

Surface-activated beads

Surface-activated magnetic beads are used to immobilize a target ligand for protein capture from a sample. Dynabeads magnetic beads with different surface functionalities, such as tosylactivated, carboxylic acid, amine, or epoxy are available for isolation of proteins, target nucleic acids, and cells.

Virus enrichment

Virus purification is important to identify and functionally define new and old viruses. Dynabeads magnetic beads provide a rapid, convenient, and automatable way to concentrate virus-containing solutions.
