Superparamagnetic particles have been utilized extensively in diagnostics and other research applications for the purification of cells and biomolecules, such as antibodies, nucleic acids, and polypeptides. They confer a number of benefits, including ease of separation and suitability for automation. When coated with recognition molecules, magnetic microspheres are ideal for the efficient capture and separation of target. Unwanted sample constituents may be washed away following a simple magnetic separation step.
Our different superparamagnetic microparticle product lines allow us to uniquely address a wide range of applications in the life sciences, from cell separations and immunoassays to suspension arrays and flow cytometry.

COMPEL™
COMPEL™ are highly uniform superparamagnetic microspheres ideal for applications that demand uniform particle response. COMPEL™ are comprised of iron oxide crystals dispersed in a polymer matrix, with a functional polymer overcoating for the encapsulation of magnetite and the introduction of reactive groups. As they are polymer-based, they retain the low density that is advantageous for biomolecular assays. Our offerings include 3µm, 6µm, and 8µm beads with measured CVs of ≤ 5% and high levels of COOH-functionalization.
