Magnetic Macroporous Bead Cellulose MG

Pure or its derivatives for magnetic separations | General informations

Macroporous Bead Cellulose MG and its derivatives can be used for izolation or magnetic modification of biologically active matters, cells, sub-cellular components, contaminants of environment or other matters of studied systems. Especially advantageous is their use in microbiology, cell biology, medicine, biochemistry, biotechnology and ecology.

Only magnetic derivatives with ion-exchange functional groups are delivered (Iontosorb MG SHP, MG CM, MG TMAHP a MG DEAE). For example: Are you interested in →  IONTOSORB SHP? We can produce you MAGNETIC SORBENT IONTOSORB SHP. But SHP 100 or SHP 200, because Magnetic Macroporous Bead Cellulose and its derivatives are made in these porozities only:

Basic properties of derivatives IONTOSORB are the same both for magnetic or non-magnetic beads.

Magnetic macroporous bead celulose (types MG) is produced by the same technology as a classic macroporous bead cellulose (types MT) with the only difference that MG has in its matrix built in Fe3O4 in amount min. 30 % related to dry matter.

These Fe3O4 particles are present in the cellulose matrix and therefore macroporosity is not influenced by the Fe3O4 particles. This fact corresponds also with a B.V. for Iontosorb MG re-calculated to MT.

If an average experimental B.V.value for MG = 7.4 mlg-1 of dry matter MG and a determined ash content 29.7 %, then the bellow given equation can be used for the re-calculation of the found B.V. of MG to a calculated B.V., which would correspond to the MT without Fe3O4.

Macroporous Bead Cellulose MG types are highly porous gels well accessible for large macromolecules, as it is shown in this Figures.
