I am using the Pierce Direct Magnetic IP/Co-IP Kit. The magnetic beads formed an aggregate during the coupling process; how do I avoid this? Product FAQ

Answer

The proteins on the bead surface may adhere to the plastic tube and to each other. To avoid this, after the quenching step, add a mild surfactant at a final concentration of 0.05% (v/v) ( e.g., Tween-20 Detergent, Cat. No 85113) to the washes

Note: Do not use detergent in the coupling step.
