| Product Name | LCA Magnetic Beads |
| Catalog Number | MGB-PP-021 |
| Size | 1 mL, 5 mL, 100 mL |
| Physical Specs | 30-150 µm |
| Description | Lens Culinaris Agglutinin (LCA) is a ~49 kDa metalloprotein isolated from lentil seeds, composed of two 17 kDa and two 8 kDa subunits, specifically binding α-D-mannose, α-D-glucose, and related residues. LCA magnetic beads are affinity matrices for glycoprotein isolation via specific, reversible lectin-carbohydrate interactions, enabling rapid magnetic separation without centrifugation, filtration, or chromatography. |
| Applications | Used for the separation and purification of glycoproteins, membrane proteins, glycolipids, polysaccharides, membrane vesicles containing mannose or glucose residues, IgM, and hormone-binding proteins. |
| Particle Size | 30-150 µm |
| Concentration | 10% (v/v) |
| Surface Groups | ≥ 13 mg thyroglobulin/mL beads |
| Shell | 4% cross-linked magnetic agarose |
| Storage Solution | 20% ethanol, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM CaCl₂, 1 mM MnCl₂ |
| Storage | 2-8°C |
