Will my protein be in its native conformation after B-PER Reagent extraction?

While this is protein-dependent, many proteins have been successfully tested in downstream applications (reporter assays, immunoprecipitation and beta-Gal assays), including GST and 6xHis proteins. Otherwise, samples can be diluted or dialyzed to remove any interfering substances.

What is the difference between HisPur Nickel Resin and HisPur Cobalt Resin?

Nickel has a higher affinity for histidines than does cobalt. It binds multiple histidines more tightly than cobalt, and requires more stringent conditions than is necessary for cobalt. The lower affinity of cobalt for multiple histidines typically results in less nonspecific binding of histidine-rich proteins that lack a his-tag compared to nickel resins.

HisPur Ni-NTA resin has a high capacity of up to 60 mg of 6xHis-tagged protein per milliliter. It is a versatile resin that can work under both native and denaturing conditions, and can also be used with a variety of lysis reagents and buffer additives.

HisPur Cobalt resin utilizes proprietary tetradentate chelating resin charged with cobalt. This system recovers highly purified protein with lower imidazole concentrations and has low metal leeching properties.

What is the membrane material in the rapid equilibrium dialysis (RED) system?

The membrane used is regenerated cellulose with a low glycerol content (acts as a humectant).
