Immunoprecipitation is a technique used to separate proteins from organic samples for investigation. Initially, rough and porous sepharose and agarose polymers were utilized to isolate proteins and they used adhesion to their rough surfaces, gaps and hollow spaces inside them to capture the proteins but these smooth superparamagnetic beads use their magnetic fields for protein capture. How is it possible to use magnetism to attract proteins? Are proteins magnetic like metal?
