Blockmaster CE210 Magnetic Beads

JSR

Catalog No: JSR-BMCE210TA-RAN

FULLY CHEMICAL SYNTHESIZED BLOCKING REAGENT
Blockmaster™ CE510 and CE210 are fully synthetic, water soluble blocking reagents consisting of a hydrophilic PEG tail and multiple amine-end groups. While the PEG tail reduces the non-specific binding, the amine end-group allows for a covalent conjugation with amine reactive surfaces.
Key Properties
• A unique composition consisting of a hydrophilic PEG-tail and 
multiple amine end-groups
• High durability by covalent coupling 
• Low non-specific binding of proteins/cells
• Signal enhancement thanks to improved antibody orientation 
• Improvement of beads dispersion



Example Protocol For Covalent Coupling
1. Magnetic beads 10 mg (1%, 1000 μL or 10% 100 μL) remove supernatant with magnet 
2. Mix Magnetic beads and Binding Buffer* 500 μL to pre-wash (Suspend the beads by vortexing. Then, remove supernatant with magnet) 
3. Mix Magnetic beads and Binding Buffer* 900 μL at 25˚C 
4. Add 1% EDC** 100 μL, mixing at 25˚C for 30 min 
5. Add antibody 1 mg/mL 100 μL, mixing at 25˚C for 1–3 hours 
6. Add Blocking solution 500 μL (2 wt% Blockmaster™ CE510) mixing at 25˚C for 1–3 hours 
7. Remove the supernatant by magnet 
8. Add Washing Buffer 500 μL, washing 4 times 
9. Add desired Buffer, suspending the beads by vortexing 
10. Store at 2–8˚C
