When biological samples are incubated or stored in a standard tube or plate, biological materials and its properties can be lost due to adsorption to the plastic surface. This is a serious concern for researchers working with precious proteins, antibodies, and peptides.
ProteoSave™ is specially designed for reducing biological sample adsorption to the plastic surface. The surface of ProteoSave™ is coated with an ultra-hydrophilic polymer. This ultra-hydrophilic polymer prevents protein denaturation and adsorption which could be inflicted by surface influence (Fig.1, Fig.2). Also, the coated polymer is bound on the surface covalently, so materials eluting from the surface are reduced to a minimum. ProteoSave™ is shown to be the more suitable tube/plate for your precious biological sample preservation.
Principle
The surface of the Proteosave™ tubes and wells with high density of hydroxyl groups prevent the non-specific binding of proteins, peptides, and cells to the surface (FIG 1.). The coated polymer is bound on the surface covalently, thus elution of materials from the surface is reduced to a minimum.
Features of ProteoSave™
Reduction of the adsorption of proteins, peptides and cells.
Elution of materials reduced to a minimum due to the covalently attachment of the ultra-hydrophilic polymer to the surface.
Resistance to organic solvents, detergents, and heat (boiling at 100°C 10min.).
