Frequently asked questions

What is the primary application of the PL-SAX 4000A material?

It is used for the optimum separation of very large molecules such as immunoglobulins.

How was the purity of polyclonal antibodies assessed in the example?

The bound antibodies were eluted using 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5, and the pH was adjusted to neutrality using sodium hydroxide.

Is the PL-SAX 4000A approved for clinical diagnostic procedures?

No, this product is not cleared or approved by the United States FDA or other international regulatory agency for use in clinical diagnostic procedures.
