Polyfunctional reagents are disclosed that are capable of reversibly binding to target substances, for example nucleic acid, proteins, polypeptides, cells, cell components, microorganisms or viruses, for use in purifying or otherwise manipulating them. The reagents comprise a tagging group for manipulating and/or detecting the target substance when bound to the polyfunctional reagent. The polyfunctional reagents work by binding the target substance at a first pH and then releasing it at a second pH, usually higher than the first. Examples of tagging groups include tagging group members of a specific binding pair which is capable of binding to a specific binding partner and/or a label. |
