Abstract: The present invention relates to a magnet plate for use in isolating a macromolecule from a mixture in a vessel, wherein the magnet plate has a reversible compression lock. The reversible compression lock engages the top plate and the base plate, wherein when in a locked position, the top plate is fixed and cannot move up and down, along the axis of the support or corner post and when in an unlocked position, the top plate is movable up and down along the axis of the support.

Abstract: A solid-core ring-magnet having one or more cavities is provided. The magnet can have an overall cylindrical shape or a rectangular-prism shape. In either case, a portion of cavity walls of the magnet are ring shaped, causing the magnetic field lines to emanate from the magnet in the shape of a ring. The diameter of the ring shaped cavities can be constant throughout, constant through a portion of the cavity, variant throughout, or variant through a portion of the cavity. The cavities open to the end of the magnet, and terminate toward the core of the magnet. Also provided are systems and kits having solid-core ring-magnets. Methods of purifying a macromolecule using the solid-core ring-magnets are also provided.

Abstract: A solid-core ring-magnet having one or more cavities is provided. The magnet can have an overall cylindrical shape or a rectangular-prism shape. In either case, a portion of cavity walls of the magnet are ring shaped, causing the magnetic field lines to emanate from the magnet so that the bead formation is in the shape of a ring. A bead separation magnet having a discontinuous or segmented cavity wall is also provided. The segmented cavity wall causes bead formation to form in a segmented or gapped ring to allow for easier manual pipetting. Also provided are systems and kits having the inventive magnets. Methods of purifying a macromolecule using the inventive magnets are also provided.
