Why Did My Nickel Agarose Beads Lose Their Color?
Ni2+ ions give nickel agarose beads their characteristic blue color. This blue color can fade or disappear completely when loading his-tagged proteins onto the column....

Nickel agarose beads change from blue to a brown or black color when the nickel ions have been reduced from a Ni2+ to a Ni1+...
The characteristic blue color of nickel agarose beads comes from the 2+ oxidation state of the nickel ions. Color is also a useful indicator for...
Nickel agarose beads are compatible with a wide range of buffers. However, it is important to limit the amount of metal chelating agents, such as...
Like other resins, preparing nickel agarose beads for reuse involves cleaning with solutions that contain high salt, basic pH, or organic solvents. However, these beads...
The reported binding capacity of GoldBio’s nickel agarose beads ranges from 6 to 80 milligrams (mg) of his-tagged protein per milliliter (mL) of resin. The...
While very similar overall, the fundamental difference between NTA and IDA is that NTA forms 4 bonds with a nickel ion whereas IDA makes 3...
Purifying proteins with traditional methods is a lot of work. To take a protein from cell lysis, through affinity and size exclusion purifications, perhaps with...
Have you ever had a problem where you had to try many different potential solutions before you finally found one that worked? Early in my...
Have you ever wondered whether you should be using regular agarose beads or magnetic agarose beads for your protein purification or experiment? If so, this...
Affinity purification is a frequently used technique for purifying proteins. During affinity purification, affinity tags or intrinsic properties of the proteins are used to bind...
