CUTANA™ Concanavalin A-Conjugated Paramagnetic Beads

Product Description

This product contains Concanavalin A-conjugated to paramagnetic microspheres. Concanavalin A (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 in their extracellular matrices.

Formulation:

Concanavalin A conjugated to 1 µm paramagnetic microspheres in 10mM PBS with 0.1% sodium azide.

Storage and Stability:

Stable for six months at 4°C from date of receipt. DO NOT FREEZE!
