The MojoSort™ Human CD63 Microbead Exosome Kit is intended for the magnetic separation of human CD63 exosomes from cell culture supernatant, heparin-treated plasma, serum or urine. MojoSort™ Microbeads are directly conjugated to anti-CD63 mouse monoclonal antibodies. MojoSort™ Microbeads are superparamagnetic particles with an average diameter of 1 μm. Tetraspanin membrane proteins, such as CD63, are enriched on the surface of exosomes and can be used for separation from biological samples. The positively selected bead-bound CD63 exosomes may be characterized by downstream applications such as western blot, flow cytometry and qRT-PCR. The bead-bound CD63 exosomes may also be released from the beads under acidic conditions (see “Elution of Exosomes” section in the protocol).
Unlike other exosome isolation kits in the market, this kit does not require users to pre-enrich their samples with ultracentrifugation or total exosome enrichment kits. MojoSort™ reagents are also compatible with magnets from other vendors. Optimizing incubations times when using magnets from other vendors is recommended.

Kit Capacity:
This kit provides 900 μL of MojoSort™ Human CD63 Exosome Microbeads and 25 mL of MojoSort™ Exosome Buffer (10X). For use of this kit, a single test is defined as processing 0.5 mL of human biofluids (serum, heparin-treated plasma, cell culture supernatant or urine). Per test, we recommend separation using 20 μL of MojoSort™ Human CD63 Exosome Microbeads. This kit provides enough reagents to process approximately 20 mL of human biofluids.
To obtain more MojoSort™ Exosome Buffer (10X), please contact Technical Services for more information at https://www.biolegend.com/en-us/contact.
Starting sample notes:- If you intend to select exosomes from < 0.5 mL of biofluids per test, please bring up the volume to 0.5 mL using 1X Exosome Buffer and adhere to indicated volumes for 0.5 mL tests according to the protocol. Please note that using less than the recommended volume of 0.5 mL of starting sample may result in reduced exosome yield.
- Levels of CD63 tetraspanins on the surface of exosomes may vary between source of biofluids (serum, heparin-treated plasma, cell culture supernatant or urine) and may also be donor dependent. Varying CD63 levels on human exosomes may also affect yield and require titration of kit components.
- We may see a faint non-specific band around 27 kD and 55 kD; this is due to the light chain being separated from the heavy chain (vice versa) and falling off from the antibody conjugated beads while lysing and preparing the bead bound exosomes for running in SDS gel in reduced form (because of denaturation with SDS in the sample buffer and reduction with beta-mercaptoethanol).
- This kit is validated for use with Heparin-treated plasma only. It is not suitable for other types of plasma.
Antibody or cocktail dilution to use in column: N/A
Dilution to use in column: N/A - If you intend to select exosomes from < 0.5 mL of biofluids per test, please bring up the volume to 0.5 mL using 1X Exosome Buffer and adhere to indicated volumes for 0.5 mL tests according to the protocol. Please note that using less than the recommended volume of 0.5 mL of starting sample may result in reduced exosome yield.

Related FAQs
- Is there a way to detach your magnetic particles from the cell surface?
-
MojoSort™ Nanobeads: These magnetic particles cannot be removed from cells. This includes standalone Nanobeads and MojoSort kits using Nanobeads. We have found that cells are functional without the need to detach the magnetic Nanobeads.
MojoSort Microbeads: These magnetic particles may be released following the detailed product-specific protocol.
- What is the size of your magnetic particles?
-
MojoSort Nanobeads: the average diameter is approximately 130 nm.
MojoSort Microbeads: the average diameter is approximately 1 μm.
- Are MojoSort™ Nanobeads compatible with other commercially available magnetic separation systems?
-
MojoSort™ magnetic particles can be used with other commercially available magnetic separators, both free standing magnets and column-based systems. Because MojoSort™ protocols are optimized for the MojoSort™ separator, the protocols may need to be adjusted for other systems. Please contact BioLegend Technical Service for more product-specific information and guidance. We do not recommend using MojoSort™ particles for BD’s IMag™ or Life Technologies’ DynaMag™.
