The SeraSil-Mag 400 Silica Beads, 1 L (29705862) are silica coated superparamagnetic beads for nucleic acid isolation and diagnostic extraction research workflows. This 1 L format contains SeraSil-Mag 400 beads with a 400 nm particle size, supplied as a 20 mg/mL suspension in water containing 0.05% sodium azide.
Key Features
- Silica coated superparamagnetic bead chemistry, designed for nucleic acid isolation and DNA extraction applications
- 400 nm monodisperse particle size, providing a submicron bead format with a narrow size distribution
- 1 L bulk pack format, matching the 1000 mL Cytiva ordering size for part 29705862
- 20 mg/mL bead concentration, supplied in water containing 0.05% sodium azide
- Superparamagnetic response, with Cytiva specifying 60 emu/g magnetisation and an approximately 5 second magnetic response rate
- Hydroxyl surface chemistry, using silica surface groups for nucleic acid binding under appropriate salt conditions
- Compatible with common mixing methods, including vortex mixing, roller mixing and sonication
- Room temperature storage, simplifying reagent handling and laboratory inventory management
Benefits
- Helps laboratories isolate nucleic acids from low-volume or trace DNA samples for sensitive downstream workflows.
- The silica surface supports DNA binding when used with appropriate protocols and chaotropic salt chemistry.
- The 1 L format suits higher-throughput laboratories or production-scale reagent preparation needs.
- Monodisperse particle sizing and controlled bead morphology help support consistent handling and assay performance.
- Fast magnetic response helps streamline bead capture, washing and elution steps during extraction workflows.
