Description
Rapid desalting and buffer exchange of nucleic acids, proteins, and nanoparticles in low-volume formats
he CentriPure 2 – Z50M from emp BIOTECH is a high-performance gel filtration column designed for the fast and efficient removal of small molecules such as salts, dyes, ammonia, biotin, and haptens from biomolecules. Utilizing Zetadex-50, a cross-linked dextran-based size-exclusion resin, this column enables gravity-based purification and buffer exchange of proteins (>25 kDa), nucleic acids (>20 bp), and spheroidal nanoparticles (>4 nm) in just one step.
With a working sample volume range of 150–300 µL, CentriPure 2 is ideal for labs processing smaller sample batches without sacrificing purification quality. Each column delivers >99.99% removal of low-molecular-weight contaminants and >85% recovery of target biomolecules with ~1.5–2-fold dilution, offering a reliable alternative to dialysis and ultrafiltration.
