IBA LifeSciences Biotin powder; 5 g
Supplier: IBA LifeSciences 21016005

Biotin is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin, also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H. It binds to the biotin-binding pockets of streptavidin, Strep-Tactin, and Strep-TactinXT with different affinities. As a result, it allows the efficient elution of Strep-tagII or Twin-Strep-tag fusion proteins from Strep-TactinXT, while maintaining the reusability of the resin. It can be used for preparation of Strep-TactinXT elution buffer, Buffer BXT. In addition, biotin can be used for elution of biotinylated proteins from Strep-Tactin, where it binds irreversibly to the resin. Hence, Strep-Tactin cannot be regenerated in this kind of application.
