Overview of the transfer process
Following electrophoresis, the protein must be transferred from the gel to a membrane. There are three main electrophoretic transfer techniques that are used today: wet (tank transfer), semi-dry, and dry. Wet transfer is the most common and traditional strategy for western blot transfer.
Whether a customer prefers the traditional wet transfer technique or wants to speed up their western blot transfers with a semi-dry or dry transfer system, we offer a complete set of options to meet their needs.
Comparison of transfer techniques
Semi-dry blotters
- Versatile
Can be used with do-it-yourself, ready-to-build, or ready-to-use transfer stacks
- Efficient
High transfer efficiency for a broad range of protein sizes - High-throughput
Transfer up to 4 mini or 2 midi gels simultaneously with the Power Blotter XL System
Ordering Information
Dry blotter
- Engineered for rapid transfer
Short distance between electrodes along with high field strength and current reduces transfer time to just 7 minutes - Minimal preparation and cleanup
Dry transfer stacks streamline transfer setup and teardown - Convenient
Touchscreen interface, preprogrammed optimised transfer protocols, and prepackaged ready-to-use stacks for transferring midi and mini blot formats (2 midi blot or up to 4 mini blots at a time)
