Functionalized agarose

Affinity and Purification Reagents | Functionalized Agarose

Functionalized agarose is a versatile chromatography matrix modified with specific chemical groups or ligands to enable selective binding of target biomolecules. These modifications can include reactive groups for covalent coupling or affinity ligands such as antibodies, lectins, or metal ions. Functionalized agarose beads are widely used in affinity purification to isolate proteins, nucleic acids, or other biomolecules with high specificity and purity.

The porous structure of agarose allows efficient flow and interaction while maintaining gentle conditions to preserve biological activity. This reagent is essential for downstream applications.

Vector Labs offers a diverse assortment of functionalized agarose beads labeled with cleavable, photocleavable, and reactive groups such as alkyne, azide, DBCO, Dde azide, disulfide azide, methyltetrazine, picolyl azide, streptavidin, and TCO for versatile affinity purification and bioconjugation applications.
