Product Description: Hexa-His (6X His Tag) is a commonly used affinity tag made up of six histidine residues. HEXA-HIS can bind to affinity chromatography media containing transition metal ions like nickel (Ni2+) or cobalt (Co2+), making it useful for protein purification[1][2].
Formula: C36H44N18O7
