Whatman GB003 Blotting Paper - 10426890
Whatman applies consistent process controls across its paper portfolio, holding thickness and purity steady from lot to lot. Gel blotting paper backs the membrane as the buffer reservoir in semi-dry and tank transfer. The gel blotting paper soaks up and holds ample buffer for the full transfer while handling protein and nucleic-acid transfer alike and backs the membrane as the buffer reservoir in electroblotting. For thick-gel protein work, the heavyweight cellulose reservoir sustains semi-dry transfer from start to finish.
Key Characteristics
- Higher buffer capacity lets fewer paper layers carry a complete transfer
- Backs the membrane as the buffer reservoir in semi-dry and tank electroblotting
- Uniform thickness presses gel and membrane into even contact for sharp bands
- Supports gel drying and colony or plaque-lift lysis and denaturation
- Thick, highly absorbent paper holds a large reservoir of transfer buffer
Steady buffer wicking and even gel contact keep every band transferring cleanly across the membrane. Uniform buffer wicking carries your transfer evenly to completion across semi-dry, tank, and capillary blotting setups.

- Membrane Gel Support - Holds the gel and membrane in even contact so transferred band patterns stay sharp and reproducible.
- Buffer Reservoir - Holds a deep reserve of transfer buffer and feeds it steadily across the membrane through long electroblotting runs.
- Semi-Dry Blotting - Holds a high buffer reservoir for even semi-dry electrophoretic transfer of proteins from gel to membrane.
- Protein Electroblotting - Drives complete protein transfer from gel to membrane with high absorbency and even, sustained buffer flow.
- Gel Drying - Backs polyacrylamide and agarose gels during drying with thick, uniform, highly absorbent cellulose support.
- Tank Transfer - Backs the membrane in wet-tank electroblotting and feeds transfer buffer steadily through the full transfer run.
