Gilson Extractman magnetic bead platform

For research involving proteins, purifying and isolating a protein of interest is a key step where time is wasted and results are lost — commonly used magnetic bead protocols involve several ‘washing’ steps that are slow and harsh, and that can destroy weakly bound and transient protein interactors.

Gilson’s Extractman magnetic bead platform uses Exclusion-based Sample Preparation (ESP) technology, which pulls the magnetic beads (along with the attached protein) directly out of solution instead of isolating them with washing steps.

The result is a fast, single-step purifying method that better retains weakly bound protein complexes. Applications from drug discovery to disease pathway research stand to gain from its fast workflows and preservation of end products.
