Magnetic Beads (DNA & RNA Purification)

Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization magnetic beads consist of paramagnetic particles coated with carboxyl groups that reversibly bind DNA. They are used for DNA purification because they are fast, simple and efficient. We have developed our own beads technology that are different from other SPRI beads technologies.

Our Magnetic Beads (DNA & RNA Purification) combines BioDynami’s proprietary chemistries with reversible DNA-binding properties of magnetic beads. The magnetic beads, which are unique from other SPRI beads, are developed for effective nucleic acid purification by removing unwanted components such as salts, dNTPs, enzymes, primers, adapters, and other impurities. The beads are RNase free, can be used for applications of DNA, and even work with more sensitive RNA without any additional cost.

Our magnetic beads are optimized to selectively bind DNA fragments of 100 bp and larger, and RNA fragments of 200 bases and larger, similar to other SPRI beads such as AMPure® XP* and SPRIselect*. Purified DNA and RNA are suitable for downstream applications requiring high quality DNA and RNA, as the purified fragments are free of contaminants and impurities. The beads can be used for NGS library purification, PCR fragment cleanup, molecular cloning, or even nucleic acid concentration.

The beads can also be used for size selection of DNA fragments ranging from 150 bp to 800 bp by changing the bead-to-sample volume ratio and performing single or double-size selection. The beads are an ideal choice for NGS library preparation. They can be easily integrated into the standard workflow of NGS library preparation since the volume ratio is similar for protocols using standard magnetic beads.

Features:

• Effective recovery of DNA and RNA samples
  • DNA fragments greater than 100 base pairs
  • RNA fragments greater than 200 bases
• Removal of unwanted components and impurities
• Fragment size selection for specific applications
  • Consistent single or double-size selection
• Flexibility: compatible with manual and automated processing
• Cost effective alternative to other beads such as AMPure® XP* and SPRIselect*  with equivalent performance

* AMPure® XP and SPRIselect are trade marks of Beckman Coulter.

Magnetic beads recovery rate. dsDNA and ssDNA of genomic DNA, 1 kb DNA, and 200 bp DNA fragments were used. Total RNA was also tested.

Comparison of elution volume vs yield. 40 ul , 30 ul, and 20 ul of elution volume were used. BioDynami magnetic beads have better recovery rates at low elution volume when compared to other SPRI beads such as AMPure® XP*.

Applications:

• NGS Library preparation
• Purification of PCR fragments
• Purification of DNA and RNA fragments
• Molecular Cloning
• Other applications requiring purified DNA and RNA

M-SAN HQ  – Peak performance where it matters most at physiological conditions

Medium-Salt Active Nuclease High Quality (M-SAN HQ) is a Bioprocessing Grade nuclease developed for removal of both single and double-stranded DNA and RNA at the physiological salt conditions most often used in bioprocessing and biomanufacturing workflows. M-SAN HQ allows you to directly replace Benzonase without changing your workflow.

This novel, nonspecific endonuclease is active over a broad pH range and displays optimum activity at salt concentrations between 125 – 250 mM. Due to its excellent performance at physiological conditions, M-SAN HQ can be used directly in the cell medium or the harvested supernatant without buffer adjustments. This makes M-SAN HQ ideal for the manufacturing of fragile vectors such as lentiviruses and retroviruses.

M-SAN HQ can be directly used in medium without buffer adjustments The high activity of M-SAN HQ at standard cell medium conditions leads to improved DNA clearance compared to other commonly used nucleases. In the data (see Figure 6), an over 2-fold reduction in residual DNA was achieved. 

Key Benefits

• Compatibility: Ideal for working with both fragile and robust viral vectors and proteins in a variety of cell media
• Optimum activity: Optimization for cell media salinity allows both shorter DNA fragments and reduced incubation times.
• Cost-Effectiveness: Reduced need for additional reagents and steps can lower production costs
• Quality: Maintains the integrity of sensitive or labile biological molecules, ensuring a higher quality end product
• Flexibility: Can be used directly in a variety of media without the need for customization

Key Features 

• High purity (≥ 99%)
• No protease detected
• Endotoxin-tested
• Animal origin-free production
• Supplied with extended product documentation

Adapted to use in medium without salinity adjustments 

Optimal activity at physiological salinity and pH makes it ideal for DNA removal from mammalian cell media. (see Figures)

The high activity of M-SAN HQ at the physiological salinity and pH found in standard cell medium conditions leads to improved DNA clearance compared to commonly used nucleases.

Simple to Optimize in Cell Media

M-SAN HQ is uniquely formulated to excel in physiological pH conditions, offering high performance at the commonly used cell media pH of 7.4.

While other nucleases often require more alkaline environments, M-SAN HQ stands out for its adaptability and effectiveness in cell media. It’s the nuclease that truly aligns with your bioprocessing needs. (See Figure section)
