Akadeum’s streptavidin microbubbles are high-buoyancy particles for use in targeting, capturing, and sorting cells, bacteria, viruses, or molecular analytes from common samples in the life sciences. Microbubbles come shipped ready for conjugation to biotinylated antibodies or other biomolecules.

Key Features
High Buoyancy
With a density of 0.6 g/cm3, Akadeum microbubbles rapidly lift target cells to the top of the sample (typically less than 10 minutes in a microcentrifuge tube, 15 minutes in a 15 mL conical tube).
Excellent Streptavidin Availability
Microbubbles are functionalized with ~ 200,000 streptavidin sites per particle (0.17 nmol sites/mg of bubbles).
Easy Conjugation in Less than 90 Minutes
Beads can be functionalized with biotinylated antibodies or other biomolecules. Binding efficiency can be confirmed with flow cytometry by staining with a fluorescent secondary antibody.
Separation Permits Positive Selection or Depletion
Once conjugated, microbubbles bind specific cells and are gently and rapidly separated from complex samples. Microbubbles are compatible with common protein and nucleic acid isolation preps.
