Universal Supports and Synthesis Supplies
Universal Supports
With the widespread use of high throughput DNA synthesizers, the relevance of universal supports is more important than ever. A universal support is used in place of a synthesis support that has the first base attached to the support. This permits the use of one support for all syntheses.
- Eliminates the need for an inventory of nucleoside supports.
- Minimizes the possibility of error in the selection of the correct support type.
- Reduces time and eliminates the possible error in the generation of an array of nucleoside supports in 96 well synthesizers.
- Allows the preparation of oligonucleotides containing a 3'-terminal nucleoside which is not available as a support.
Oligo Affinity Support
The criteria for a successful oligo affinity support are simple:
- The support must allow high quality oligonucleotide synthesis using organic solvents.
- The support must also be suitable for use in the aqueous medium of affinity chromatography.
- The support must exhibit low non-specific binding of the intended affinity target.

Universal Support III
Our universal supports and synthesis supplies are produced and packaged to ensure the highest performance on commercial oligonucleotide synthesizers.
Polystyrene Supports
Glen Research is delighted to offer a variety of polystyrene supports in bulk or columns.
Oligo-Affinity Supports
Oligo-affinity supports (OAS) should ideally be compatible with automated synthesis, should be non-friable, should not shrink or swell, and should have low non-specific binding of the proteins or DNA.
Empty Synthesis Columns & Frits
Empty columns and frits for several commercial oligonucleotide synthesizers are available.
