1. Overview
PuriMag? Beads enable rapid magnetic separation of antibodies through affinity binding. Recombinant Protein A, G, or L covalently coupled to surface-blocked beads binds antibodies from diverse species, facilitating purification from crude extracts. Immunoprecipitation assays using these protein-coated beads deliver low background and high target antigen yield. Crosslinker chemistry allows permanent antibody immobilization on magnetic particles, preventing IgG leakage in IP/Co-IP experiments.
Core Applications
Antibody isolation from serum, cell culture supernatants, or ascites fluid
Immunoprecipitation (IP) and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) of antigens from cell/tissue extracts
Protein L-Specific Features:
Selectively binds mouse/human antibodies via kappa light chains
Does not bind bovine IgG, making it ideal for purifying monoclonal antibodies from bovine serum-supplemented cell cultures
Standard Workflows
(Recover purified solutions using magnetic racks or automated instruments)

3. Instructions for Use
3.1 Precautions
Do not centrifuge, dry, or freeze PuriMag? G-ProA beads. These actions cause bead aggregation and loss of binding activity.
For optimal antibody binding and dispersion, include 0.025%–0.1% non-ionic detergent (e.g., Tween-20) or zwitterionic detergent (e.g., CHAPS) in the binding buffer, and mix beads during incubation.
To minimize protein degradation, add protease inhibitors when preparing cell lysates.
For single-use applications, low-pH elution is acceptable. Optimal elution time is ≤10 min; exceeding this may increase non-specific binding and reduce yield.
For downstream Western blotting with rabbit antibodies (primary/secondary): Elute in SDS-PAGE sample buffer at room temperature.
For all other antibody species: Boiling beads in SDS-PAGE sample buffer is acceptable for single-use applications.
Note: Boiling causes irreversible bead aggregation and loss of activity.
PuriMag? G-ProA beads are compatible with:
Small-scale antibody purification
Immunoprecipitation
Western blot analysis
Select the appropriate protein-coated beads when isolating polyclonal IgG from different serum sources.
3.2 Antibody Purification Protocol
A. Buffers
Binding/Wash Buffer: Tris-buffered saline (50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.6 adjusted with HCl) + 0.05% Tween-20.
Elution Buffer: IgG elution buffer or 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.0.
Neutralization Buffer: High-ionic strength alkaline buffer (e.g., 1 M phosphate or 1 M Tris, pH 7.5–9).
B. Antibody Purification (from Serum, Cell Culture Supernatant, or Ascites)
Note: Thoroughly resuspend beads by inversion, gentle vortexing, or rotation before use.
1.Transfer 50 μL (0.50 mg) beads to a 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tube. Add 150 μL Binding/Wash Buffer and mix gently by vortexing.
2.Place tube in magnetic stand. Collect beads against tube wall. Remove and discard supernatant.
3.Add 1 mL Binding/Wash Buffer. Invert tube or vortex gently for 1 min. Collect beads magnetically; discard supernatant.
4.Dilute 10 μL sample with 490 μL Binding/Wash Buffer (final volume: 500 μL).
If sample volume <500 μL, adjust to 500 μL with buffer.
5.Add diluted sample to pre-washed beads. Mix gently by vortexing/inversion.
6.Incubate with mixing at RT for 1 h.
7.Collect beads magnetically. Discard supernatant.
8.Wash beads:

Collect beads magnetically; discard supernatant.
Repeat twice (total 3 washes).
9.Add 100 μL Elution Buffer. Mix thoroughly and incubate at RT for 10 min with intermittent mixing.
10.Collect beads magnetically. Transfer supernatant (containing eluted antibodies) to a new tube.
Neutralize: Add 15 μL Neutralization Buffer per 100 μL eluate.
*Minimum recommended bead volume for antibody purification: 50 μL.*
3.3 Co-Immunoprecipitation Protocol
