Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Protein A/G Plus Agarose is an exceptionally high-capacity affinity resin designed for efficient and selective purification of IgG antibodies across a wide range of mammalian species. This Plus-grade resin features a dense immobilization of recombinant Protein A/G on a robust, crosslinked 6% agarose matrix, delivering unmatched performance for demanding antibody purification applications.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Ultra-High Binding Capacity
Binds >50 mg of human IgG per mL of resin, making it ideal for high-yield antibody purification. -
Fusion Protein for Broad IgG Recognition
Recombinant Protein A/G combines four Fc-binding domains from Protein A and two from Protein G, enabling strong affinity for all human IgG subclasses and a wide range of mammalian IgG. -
Universal IgG Affinity Resin
Suitable for antibodies from human, mouse, rat, goat, sheep, cow, rabbit, and more—especially when antibody subclass is unknown. -
Stable & Reusable
Prepared using AminoLink™ Coupling Chemistry for covalent, charge-free immobilization, offering excellent resin stability and reusability over multiple cycles. -
Minimal Nonspecific Binding
Inert matrix and leach-resistant bonds reduce background and improve purification purity.

How It Works
Pierce Protein A/G Plus Agarose employs a recombinant fusion ligand that captures immunoglobulin G (IgG) via the Fc region. The resin is compatible with neutral pH buffers and offers improved retention of antibody activity due to its mild binding and elution conditions. Its enhanced capacity allows fewer purification cycles, saving time and resources.
