This matrix is a highly cross-linked 4% agarose bead with a bead size of 50-150 µm. It is a gel filtration resin developed for industrial-scale separation of large molecules and virus particles utilizing higher pressure and flow rates rather than low pressure standard beads.

This matrix is not preactivated.For preactivated resins, look for Glyoxal Agarose Beads or Protein G.

HTC beads are high throughput beads designed to meet the demand for industrial process separation. Their rigidity and mechanical resistance permits high flow rates with good resolution in a minimum time frame, making these beads ideal for process-scale use. HTC Beads are highly cross-linked 4% and 6% agarose matrices and have excellent physical and chromatographic qualities. They are autoclavable. These beads are an ideal support for the immobilization of ligands for Affinity Chromatography and base media support for producing IEX (Ion Exchange) and hydrophobic interaction chromatography resins.

4% HTC agarose beads are suitable for use with FPLC or HPLC, and can withstand pressures up to 300 kPa.

Storage/Handling: Store at 4°C. Do not freeze.
