OctoMACS Separator contains a powerful permanent magnet that induces a high-gradient magnetic field within MACS Columns–a field strong enough to retain cells labeled with MACS MicroBeads.
The OctoMACS Separator contains a powerful permanent magnet that induces a high-gradient magnetic field within MACS® Columns – a field strong enough to retain cells labeled with even small amounts of MACS MicroBeads.
The OctoMACS Separator allows the performance of up to eight simultaneous separations in combination with MS Columns, Large Cell Columns, or M Columns:
- MS Columns for positive selection or depletion of cells
- Large Cell Columns for positive selection of large cells, e.g., megakaryocytes
- M Columns for isolation of molecules, e.g., RNA
Simultaneous separations might be desired for processing of multiple samples or for the separation of large samples split into portions.
