Uniform and superparamagnetic Dynabeads™, 2.8 μm in diameter, with a monolayer of recombinant streptavidin covalently coupled to the surface and further blocked with BSA. The beads allow for efficient capture and downstream handling of your biotinylated ligand or target molecule. The streptavidin monolayer ensures negligible leakage, and the lack of excess adsorbed streptavidin ensures batch consistency and reproducibility of your results.

Streptavidin-coupled Dynabeads™ is the gold standard for isolation and handling of biotinylated antibodies, nucleic acids or other biotinylated ligands and targets. The liquid-phase behavior in combination with the superparamagnetic properties of the beads provide rapid reaction kinetics both in the coating process, separation and during washing of the analyte.

The product holds reputable Dynal high standards with respect to reproducibility and automation ability, and drives reliability for your assays.

Benefits and Features:
• Direct and fast capture of any biotinylated ligand or target
• Flexible solid-phase protocols with superior liquid-phase reaction kinetics
• Easy and reproducible handling in manufacturing
• Low charged and neutral beads, optimal for binding of proteins, peptides and antibodies
• Fast and efficient washing procedures
• High batch-to-batch reproducibility, securing consistent results in your application
• Well suited for automated protocols

Applications:
Efficient capture of biotinylated molecules. For direct⁄indirect isolation and downstream handling of nucleic acids, proteins⁄peptides and other target molecules. Due to their uniformity, excellent batch reproducibility and ease of adaptation to automated processes, Dynabeads™ have become the solid phase of choice for immunoassay development.

Binding capacity:
The size of the molecule and the biotinylation procedure will affect the binding capacity. The capacity also depends on steric availability and charge interaction between bead and molecule and between molecules. There are two or three biotin binding sites available for each streptavidin molecule on the surface of the bead after immobilization. One mg of Dynabeads™ M-280 Streptavidin typically binds 650-900 pmoles free biotin, 200 pmol biotinylated peptides, up to10 μg biotinylated antibody, approx. 10 μg ds-DNA or 200 pmol ss-Oligonucleotides.

Additional Info:
This specific product format is for large volume customers, available on an OEM basis. The product is also available in smaller volumes for end-users (Cat. no 112-05D, 112-06D and 602-10).

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can Dynabeads Streptavidin magnetic beads be boiled?

We do not recommend this as streptavidin becomes hydrophobic and aggregates during denaturation.

I am getting high background using Dynabeads M-280 Streptavidin magnetic beads. How can I prevent this from happening?

The background might be caused by nonspecific binding to the BSA on the bead surface. Alternatively, high background might be caused by nonspecific binding to streptavidin. Increasing either the pH or the salt concentration might help reduce the binding. Dynabeads M-270 Streptavidin magnetic beads might be a better alternative; these beads are not coated with BSA and are hydrophilic, as they are based upon carboxylic acid chemistry.

My Dynabeads magnetic beads are not pelleting well with the magnet. Do you have any suggestions for me?

Please review the following possibilities for why your Dynabeads magnetic beads are not pelleting:

- The solution is too viscous.
- The beads have formed aggregates because of protein-protein interaction.

Try these suggestions: - Increase separation time (leave tub on magnet for 2-5 minutes)
- Add DNase I to the lysate (~0.01 mg/mL)
- Increase the Tween 20 concentration to ~0.05% of the binding and/or washing buffer.
- Add up to 20 mM beta-merecaptoethanol to the binding and/or wash buffers.

Which streptavidin-conjugated Dynabeads magnetic beads are the right beads for my application?

Which product to choose depends on the properties of your sample, the buffers and solutions applied, as well as the downstream application. In general, all Dynabeads Streptavidin beads can be used in applications involving biotinylated ligands; however, some beads may perform better than others in particular applications due to their characteristics. Dynabeads M-280 Streptavidin beads and Dynabeads MyOne Streptavidin T1 beads are commonly used for protein and nucleic acid applications. Dynabeads M-270 Streptavidin beads and MyOne Streptavidin C1 beads are preferred for nucleic acid diagnostics, specifically with samples that have a high concentration of chaotropic salts, immunoassays involving small biotinylated antigens, and in applications that are not compatible with BSA, as these beads are not blocked with BSA. Dynabeads MyOne Streptavidin beads offer increased binding capacity and slower sedimentation rate, making them ideal for automated applications and when larger amounts of a biotinylated compound or its specific target need to be isolated. Please see the selection guide here ( https://www.thermofisher.com/us/en/home/brands/product-brand/dynal/streptavidin-coupled-dynabeads.html?icid=fr-strep-1).

How do I measure the binding of biotinylated nucleic acid on streptavidin beads?

You can assay the supernatant for unbound nucleic acid to determine the amount of nucleic acid bound to the Dynabeads Streptavidin beads. The concentration of nucleic acids can be checked by measuring the OD or by running them on a gel. Alternatively, the nucleic acids can be labeled radioactively and the concentration measured directly on the beads, or fluorescently and measured in the supernatant.
