Begin by adding 4.3 milliliters of 0.1 molar MES buffer solution to a 15 milliliter polypropylene tube. Then add 288 microliters of the vortexed amine functionalized polystyrene bead suspension to the 15 milliliter polypropylene tube containing MES buffer. Vortex the MES bead solution for 15 seconds at maximum speed.
Next, vortex the one milligram per milliliter TCPP solution for 60 seconds at maximum speed. Then add 1.2 milliliters of this solution to the MES bead suspension. After vortexing the resultant suspension for 15 seconds, cover the tube with foil.
