Sample Preparation
Isolation of the target protein from cell or tissue samples is essential for any immunochemical reaction to occur. Whether through cell lysis or further purification and concentration, the epitope of the antigen needs to be accessible to the antibody for an antibody:antigen complex to form.
Our products can be integrated into each step of your sample preparation work flow—from lysis
buffer, to protease inhibitors that prevent degradation of target proteins, to centrifugal devices for purification. We offer cell and tissue lysate samples to be used in western blotting or immunoprecipitaiton applications as well as protein extraction kits to aid in isolating your target protein.
If protein purification and concentration are required, turn to Millipore for a wide range of centrifugal devices to prepare your sample, each designed to meet market needs of recovery, speed, and reproducibility. With a broad range of membrane types, we offer ultrafiltration devices designed specifically for desalting or concentration, and microporous membranes for clarification.
Immunodetection Sample Prep
Most immunodetection assays rely on the isolation and purification of protein samples. Proteins can be isolated from cell culture media, for studying cytokines and growth factors. . .

Affinity Purification
Affinity interaction chromatography is often the single most effective step in any protein purification procedure. Up to 95% purity can be achieved in one step, depending on the nature of the interaction and the starting composition of the protein solution.
