Cobalt Chelating Superflow 4

Cobalt Chelating Superflow 4 is an immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) resin that separates proteins via their differences in affinity to cobalt. This product is recommended as a drop-in replacement for other tetra-dentate chelators and clarified feed streams.

Cobalt Chelating Superflow 4 is generated from a proprietary tetra-dentate chelating chemistry that has been optimized to provide increased flow rates (> 30 ml/min) and Protein binding capacities (> 60 mg protein per ml resin). Along with no metal leakage properties, this resin is ideal for either large batch or column purification.

Cleanable, rechargeable, and industrial process-ready, the Cobalt Chelating Superflow 4 resin is manufactured under cGMP and ISO 9001:2015 conditions. Regulatory Support File are available as well as DMF with USFDA

The product is shipped pre-charged and ready to use. Optimizing the separation usually requires some method development.

Instructions for Use
Cobalt Chelating Superflow 4
Cobalt Chelating Superflow 4 is an immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) resin that separates proteins via their differences in affinity to Co2+. There are a number of metal-chelating resins that differ by how strongly they bind a given metal. For instance, NTA resin is a tetra-dentate chelator, leaving two coordination sites on a transition metal available to bind complexing moieties on proteins, such as Histidine repeats. TED resins are penta-dentate, leaving one less coordination site in the chelated metal for binding proteins. Thus, TED typically has less binding capacity than NTA. IDA Chelating resins are tri-dentate and typically have very high binding capacities in comparison to other chelators but bind the metal with less affinity. Cobalt Chelating Superflow 4 is a proprietary tridentate chelator. It is recommended for clarified feed streams.
Most IMAC purifications require some degree of method development for optimization. The protocol below is meant as an example for His-tagged protein purification.

Protocol:
Reagents:
Equilibration buffer: 50mM Sodium Phosphate, 0.3M NaCl, 10mM Imidazole, pH 8.0.
Wash buffer: 50mM Sodium Phosphate, 0.3M NaCl, 20mM Imidazole, pH 8.0.
Elution buffer: 50mM Sodium Phosphate, 0.3M NaCl, 250mM Imidazole, pH 8.0.

Method for His-tagged Protein Purification:
1. Wash resin with deionized water and prepare a 1:1 slurry. Place 400µl of slurry (200µl resin) into 5ml column with frit.
2. Equilibrate resin two times with 2ml of equilibration buffer for 2 minutes while mixing.
3. Remove and discard supernatant.
4. Load 2ml of 6XHN Beta Galactosidase Lysate (if lysate does not contain Imidazole, add to final concentration of 10mM by using 3M stock solution, pH 7.0) to resin.
5. Mix the solution for 30 minutes at room temperature.
6. Collect supernatant after 30 minutes mixing (take sample of unbound fraction for SDS-PAGE analysis).
7. Wash resin four times with 2ml of wash buffer.
8. Elute two times with 500µl of elution buffer for 10 minutes while mixing.
9. Collect and combine both elution fractions. Perform SDS-PAGE analysis.

Method for Cleaning:
The 50% ethanol wash step in the regeneration procedure described below will usually suffice to clean the resin thoroughly. Our IMAC media are also tolerant to 8M Gaunidine, 6M Urea, and high salt conditions. If contact time is less than 2 hours, 0.5M NaOH may also be used to clean the resin.
Store Cobalt Chelating Superflow resin as a 70% slurry with 20% Ethanol at 2-8 °C.
Cobalt Chelating Superflow resin should be regenerated after each use.
Method for Regeneration:
1. Wash the column with 3 bed volumes (BV) of 50mM Tris, 1M NaCl, pH 8.5 containing 1% Triton X-100.
2. Wash the column with 3 BV of DI water.
3. Wash the column with 3 BV of 20mM Sodium Acetate, 1M NaCl, pH 4.5 containing 1% Triton X-100.
4. Wash the column with 5 BV of DI water.
5. Wash the column with 5 BV of 50% Ethanol.
6. Wash the column with 3 BV of 20% Ethanol.
7. Wash the column with 3 BV of DI water.
8. Wash the column with 5 BV of 100mM EDTA, pH 8.0.
9. Wash the column with 5 BV of DI water.
10. Recharge the column with 4 BV of 150mM CoCl2.
11. Wash the column with 5 BV of DI water.
12. Wash the column with 3 BV of running buffer, or store in 20% Ethanol.
