Filter Paper for Western Blotting
Standard and extra-thick filter paper for protein transfer blotting.
Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Western Blotting Filter Papers are pre-cut cotton sheets for wet or semi-dry, passive or electrophoretic transfer of proteins from polyacrylamide gels (SDS-PAGE) to PVDF, nitrocellulose, or other membranes.
Sheets of blotting paper are necessary components of transfer sandwiches and cassettes that typically must be assembled for various kinds of protein or nucleic acid, gel-to-membrane, transfer protocols. High-quality Pierce™ Western Blotting Filter Papers are available as standard-thickness and extra-thick sheets that are pre-cut for convenience with mini gels. Choose a paper with the thickness and dimensions appropriate for specific gel sizes and device platforms or cassettes.
Highlights:
- High-quality – clean cotton cellulose fiber paper manufactured with additive-free ultrapure water to minimize sources of background signal and artifacts
- Easy to use – pre-cut filter paper sheets in several convenient sizes for use with most mini gel sizes, tank transfer cassettes and semi-dry blotters
- Two thicknesses – choose standard-thickness paper for traditional procedures or extra-thick filter paper for high capacity blotting or to avoid using multiple sheets
- Validated – tested and recommmend for use with various protein methods, including tank and semi-dry transfer
