Agarose Beads are microspheres of agarose gels with different particle diameters and concentrations. Small spherical particles of agarose act as a porous gel to filter or separate a mixture of molecules according to their individual sizes. Due to its chemical structure (easy to activate), the agarose beads may be prepared to bind biomolecules in a reversible or irreversible manner.

Plain and crosslinked agarose beads are used in Gel Filtration Chromatography (or Molecular Exclusion Chromatography) as well as for activating beads for biomolecule purification or immobilization. Plain and cross-linked agarose beads can also be used for activating processes, generating active groups inside its pores capable of reversible or irreversible biomolecule bonds.

ABT offers a wide range of plain and crossslinked agarose beads with different agarose concentrations (2, 4, 6, 8% and 10%) in different particle size distributions. You can access ABT's plain and crosslinked brochure for complete product information or access www.abtbeads.es.
