Anti-Biotin MicroBeads
Overview
Anti-Biotin MicroBeads have been developed for indirect magnetic labeling and separation of cells or other biological materials that are labeled with a biotinylated primary antibody or ligand, or with a cocktail of biotinylated antibodies.
Details
Background information
The biotinylated molecule is recognized by a monoclonal anti-biotin antibody coupled to MicroBeads. Anti-Biotin MicroBeads have the advantage of not binding to free biotin, which is often present in culture media. This feature provides the most sensitive labeling and separation of cells.

Applications
Anti-Biotin MicroBeads are ideal for positive selection, even of cells with low antigen expression, or for depletion. Anti-Biotin MicroBeads have been used for the separation of murine αE-CD25+ and αE-CD25- T cell subsets1 and for the isolation of CD45.2+ cells from the bone marrow of chimeric mice2. They have also been used for the enrichment of human CD94+ NK cells.3
Columns
For positive selection: MS, LS, XS, or autoMACS® Columns. For depletion: LD, CS, D, or autoMACS Columns.
