Whatman GB005 Blotting Paper - 10426981

Whatman's cellulose chromatography and blotting papers are long-standing laboratory references for electrophoretic transfer and separation support. Gel blotting paper backs the membrane as the buffer reservoir in semi-dry and tank transfer. The thick paper supports the gel and membrane through semi-dry and tank transfer while soaking up and holding ample buffer for the full transfer and contributes no additives that could contaminate the transfer. For reproducible band patterns, the uniform gel blotting paper presses gel and membrane into even electrophoretic contact.

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
• Thick, highly absorbent paper holds a large reservoir of transfer buffer
• Supports gel drying and colony or plaque-lift lysis and denaturation
• Pure cotton-linter cellulose with no additives keeps transfers clean and reproducible

An even, complete transfer keeps your Western, Southern, and Northern blots reproducible from gel to membrane. Pure cotton-linter cellulose keeps your transfers clean and reproducible with no additives to contaminate sensitive detection.

• Colony and Plaque Lifts - Supports lysis and denaturation steps on an absorbent, additive-free, high-purity cellulose paper surface.
• Nucleic Acid Transfer - Backs the gel and feeds buffer for even electrophoretic transfer of DNA and RNA onto the membrane.
• 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.
• 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.
