SepSphere™ Oligo Immobilization Kit via Epoxide

This oligo immobilization kit to work with amine-modified oligos. The user supplies the amine-modified oligos, which are readily available from many commercial oligo suppliers. The kit provides agarose beads derivatized with epoxide functional groups (~2 μmol epoxide per mL of resin). Using the kit components, customers immobilize their amine containing oligo onto SepSphere™ agarose beads in one step following the standard protocol.

Features of this Immobilization Kit:
▪ Minimum requirement for immobilization set-up
▪ All reagents, buffers, and plasticwares are included
▪ Modestly activated epoxide agarose
▪ One step immobilization with very mild reaction conditions
▪ Easy preparation with air push mechanism for washing: less than 1 hr hands-on time
▪ Stable linkage
