Whatman GB003 Blotting Paper - 10426892
Whatman applies consistent process controls across its paper portfolio, holding thickness and purity steady from lot to lot. The thick cellulose sheet presses the gel and membrane together across the electroblotting sandwich. High buffer capacity lets fewer paper layers carry a complete transfer while keeping transfers clean through additive-free cellulose and keeps band patterns sharp and transfer complete. For thick-gel protein work, the heavyweight cellulose reservoir sustains semi-dry transfer from start to finish.
Key Characteristics
- Uniform thickness presses gel and membrane into even contact for sharp bands
- Higher buffer capacity lets fewer paper layers carry a complete transfer
- Thick, highly absorbent paper holds a large reservoir of transfer buffer
- Backs the membrane as the buffer reservoir in semi-dry and tank electroblotting
- Supports gel drying and colony or plaque-lift lysis and denaturation
Clean, additive-free paper keeps your blots free of the contamination that ruins detection. Pure cotton-linter cellulose keeps your transfers clean and reproducible with no additives to contaminate sensitive detection.

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