Overview MagPlex-TAG Microspheres are magnetic microspheres internally labeled with fluorescent dyes and are pre-coupled with xTAG® oligonucleotide sequences (anti-tags) that are optimized to be an isothermal set and to have minimum cross-reactivity. Use of this product is intended to eliminate the separate step of coupling content-specific capture probes to MagPlex Microspheres and to allow solution-phase reaction kinetics. MagPlex-TAG Microspheres are general purpose reagents intended for general laboratory use and may be used in conjunction with other reagents to develop assays using xMAP® Technology. They are at a concentration of 2.5 x 106 microspheres/mL. Eighty regions are currently available. An additional 70 regions compatible with the FLEXMAP 3D® instrument can be manufactured upon demand with 6-8 week turn around times yielding 150 regions in total. Tag sequences used with the older, non-magnetic, MicroPlex-xTAG microspheres are not compatible with this product. See the MagPlex-TAG Product Information Sheet for details about compatible tag sequences.
