Separation Techniques & Formulation

Biomagnetic separation techniques

Biomagnetic separation techniques have a wide range of applications in biosciences. The beads are uniform, mono-dispersed, paramagnetic, consisting of a nanometer-scale superparamagnetic iron oxide core encapsulated by a high purity silica shell. The silica is suitable for chromatography in order to purify target molecules. The technique is quick, simple and flexible for large and small samples overcoming the need to repeated centrifugation and pipetting. It is an exciting time for biomagnetic separation and a large number of specialties, companies, and patients that may benefit from it, from small production companies to large pharma and academic research institutions.
