General description

Amicon® Ultra-2 centrifugal filter devices offer fast ultrafiltration. It has the potential to recover high concentration factors and easy concentrate from dilute and complex sample matrices. Amicon® Ultra-2 devices are supplied non-sterile and are for single use only.

Application

  • Ultrafiltration with 10,000 Dalton molecular weight cutoff Ultracel® membrane.
  • Concentration of biological samples containing antigens, antibodies, enzymes, nucleic acids, or microorganisms.
  • Purification of macromolecular components found in tissue culture extracts or cell lysates.
  • Primer removal, PCR cleanup, removal of linkers or macromolecular labels from a reaction mix, and protein removal prior to HPLC.
  • Desalting, buffer exchange and protein dialysis.
  • Size exclusion and protein fractionation.
Amicon® Ultra-2 Centrifugal Filter Unit has been used:
  • to reduce large volume biofluids prior to extracellular vesicle (EV) isolation or to concentrate EVs
  • Concentration of biological samples containing antigens, antibodies, enzymes, nucleic acids (DNA/RNA samples, either single- or double-stranded), microorganisms, column eluates, and purified samples
  • Purification of macromolecular components found in tissue culture extracts and cell lysates, removal of primer, linkers, or molecular labels from a reaction mix, and protein removal before high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
  • Desalting, buffer exchange, or diafiltration

Features and Benefits

  • Amicon® Ultra 2ml 10K 24PK
  • Concentrates 2 mL down to 15-70 μl
  • 98% sample recovery
  • Fast processing time - 10 to 30 minute spin times
  • Engineered dead stop
  • The reverse spin capability provides consistent recoveries

  • Ultracel® regenerated cellulose membrane with 10 kDa NMWCO delivers retentate recovery of greater than 90%
  • Concentrates 2 mL down to 15-70 μL
  • 98% sample recovery
  • Fast processing time: 10 to 30-minute spin times
  • Engineered dead stop
  • Reverse spin capability provides consistent recoveries

Other Notes

The Amicon® Ultra-2 device is supplied with two tubes. During operation, one tube is used to collect filtrate; the other to cap the device during concentration and subsequently to recover the concentrated sample. Amicon Ultra-2 Centrifugal filter devices are for research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures.
