Fluorous techniques can simplify and streamline your peptide synthesis and purification whether you are making peptide libraries in small quantities or single therapeutic peptides in large quantity. The key to the purification is fluorous solid phase extraction (FSPE), a single general purification technique that is applicable over a wide range of peptides. Since FSPE only differentiates between fluorous tagged and non-tagged entities, an entire library of peptides can be purified using a single method. If you are making a single peptide the same method can be used to separate closely related peptides, such as deletion sequences, to provide an efficient and simple method by which to pre-purify a sample prior to final reverse phase HPLC resulting in greater recovery and efficiency.
Fluorous Technologies Inc. can provide you with all the necessary reagents and FluoroFlash® silica gel used for metabolite tagging and enrichment. FluoroFlash® silica gel is available in convenient pipette form, in pre-packed micro LC format, or in loose bulk format for those who prefer to pack their own separation media.
