Bacteriophage Precipitation and Concentration: Enriches filamentous and lytic phages (e.g., M13, λ, T7) from E. coli culture supernatants for downstream titering and sequencing.

Viral Particle Concentration: Concentrates enveloped and non-enveloped viruses from cell culture media to improve transduction and detection sensitivity.

Plasmid DNA Cleanup and Concentration: Precipitates plasmid DNA from bacterial lysates to increase yield and remove soluble contaminants.

Small RNA and Oligonucleotide Precipitation: Enhances recovery of short RNAs and oligos from dilute solutions or enzymatic reactions.

Protein Crystallization: Serves as a precipitant/crowding component in crystallization screens to promote crystal formation.

Macromolecular Crowding in Assays: Provides crowding and ionic strength control for protein–nucleic acid interactions and assembly reactions.

Phage Display Workflows: Concentrates phage particles and aids in cleanup between panning rounds to improve library handling.

Environmental Phage Concentration: Aggregates and concentrates bacteriophages from wastewater or environmental samples for metagenomic analysis.
