Description

Description: This product contains Concanavalin A (ConA) conjugated to paramagnetic microspheres. ConA is a lectin (carbohydrate-binding protein) that binds specifically to mannosyl- and glucosyl-containing extracellular glycoproteins. The ConA magnetic beads are therefore useful to immobilize cells or nuclei presenting these glycans on their extracellular surfaces.

250 rxns of paramagnetic spheres in a screw cap plastic vial

Application Notes

Magnetized immobilization of intact cells or nuclei is a key feature of CUT&RUN and CUT&Tag assays that enables scalable sample processing and efficient recovery of target DNA. For more information, see our CUTANA protocols: www.epicypher.com/protocols. *Note: It is recommended to use 10 µL ConA beads per reaction (500,000 cells or less) for ChIC/CUT&RUN and 10 µL ConA beads per reaction (100,000 nuclei or less) for CUT&Tag. CUTANA™ Concanavalin A-Conjugated Paramagnetic Beads are compatible with Magnetic Separation Racks (EpiCypher 10-0008/10-0012).
