Double capacity IgY proteome enrichment
chemistry
Beckman Coulter announces second-generation ProteomeLab IgY-12 partitioning chemistries that dramatically increase the throughput capacity of its columns
Each column can now partition twice as much plasma or serum per cycle as the original version - from 20 to 250ul per cycle The capacity of the ProteomeLab IgY-HSA spin columns has also been doubled to 40ul plasma or serum per cycle

Isolation and analysis of protein-based biomarkers
Liquid chromatography and spin columns selectively partition the 12 most abundant proteins from human serum or plasma, ennriching the proteome to provide primary targets for biomarker discovery
Based on avian-generated antibodies bound to inert microbeads, ProteomeLab IgY-12 liquid chromatography and spin columns selectively partition 12 highly abundant proteins - up to 96 percent of the protein mass - from human/primate serum or plasma.
Beckman Coulter IgY chemistries offer cleaner capture and broader antigen-binding host range than other capture methods because of the evolutionary distance between chickens and mammals.
"With this advance in column chemistry, we continue to provide the best first step in the biomarker discovery process, increasing its value to the researcher," explained Jerry Feitelson, manager of Beckman Coulter's proteomics business centre.
"Our technology cleanly captures the greatest number of highly abundant proteins with the best available throughput".
