I intend to buy Protein G magnetic beads and since their prices are almost equal (approx. 200$/mL), I was wondering which company produces better beads among ThermoFisher Scientific, Cytivia (GE Healthcare), Miltenyi Biotec, and Biovision? What are the ads and cons of each?
I have not used all of these however I can say the dynabeads from invitrogen have worked very well in my experience.
Our lab uses Dynabeads because they are very consistent in size and shape (almost spherical). They are less prone to clumping or sedimenting than most other brands we've tried.

Thank you for your reply. I found these two products from ThermoFisher company. I hope you could help me choose which one is better. Pierce beads have a higher capacity since they are smaller in size.
