High yield exosome purification kit: Exo-spin

The Exo-spin™ exosome purification kit from Cell Guidance Systems purifies functional, whole exosomes (30-400 nm size) with superior yields and higher quality than many other alternative technologies. Based on a unique combination of precipitation and size exclusion chromatography purification with no organic buffers and requiring no ultracentrifugation, the Exo-spin kits are compatible with a variety of biological fluids including cell culture media, urine and saliva. The Exo-spin blood kits are suitable for use with blood, plasma and serum.

EX02 Exo-spin kit comparative data

EX02 Exo-spin™ kit comparative data

EX02 Exo-spin™ kit comparative data

Data determined by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). Each curve represents the average of 3 technical replicate measurements for each exosome isolation method and biofluid triplicate experiment. (PM = Precipitation Method). Figure taken and adapted from (Martins, TS et al., 2018).

EX04 Exo-spin midi columns comparative data

EX04 Exo-spin™ midi columns comparative data

Comparison of total exosome recovery from 10 ml conditioned cell culture medium. The total particle yield obtained with Exo-spin buffer + Exo-spin midi columns is greater than the yield obtained using the membrane affinity method. Notably, Exo-spin™ buffer is much more efficient than generic PEG 6000 when used prior to Exo-spin midi column exosome isolation.

Downstream applications
• RNA studies
• Mass spectrometry
• Western blotting/ELISA
• Nano particle tracking and functional studies
