Technology

Superparamagnetic bead technology engineered for real-world samples.

Aurosphere® beads are designed specifically for rapid separation from viscous clinical samples and fermentation broths. Large surface area and small bead size deliver highly efficient reactions in minutes.

Performance advantage

3× higher magnetization. Separation speed comparable to 2.8 μm beads at 800 nm.

Clinical samples are notoriously difficult with conventional techniques: columns block and nanobeads get lost in viscous fluids.

Because magnetic force is proportional to the cube of bead diameter, Aurosphere® 800 nm beads separate as fast as competitors' 2.8 μm beads — while retaining the high surface area of nanobeads.

How it works

Magnetic separation, end to end.

Magnetic beads bind targeted biomolecules and separate them from serum and clinical samples under an applied magnetic force — a fast, clean route to purified proteins, nucleic acids and cells.
