Whatman GB003 Blotting Paper - 10427804
Whatman's brand recognition and documented performance history support specification of its papers in standardized blotting and chromatography protocols. The gel blotting paper supports protein and nucleic-acid transfer with high buffer capacity. Pure cotton-linter cellulose contains no additives that could contaminate the transfer while spreading pressure evenly for reproducible transfer and feeds buffer steadily into the transfer sandwich. For reproducible band patterns, the uniform gel blotting paper presses gel and membrane into even electrophoretic contact.
Key Characteristics
- Supports gel drying and colony or plaque-lift lysis and denaturation
- Backs the membrane as the buffer reservoir in semi-dry and tank electroblotting
- Thick, highly absorbent paper holds a large reservoir of transfer buffer
- Higher buffer capacity lets fewer paper layers carry a complete transfer
- Uniform thickness presses gel and membrane into even contact for sharp bands
An even, complete transfer keeps your Western, Southern, and Northern blots reproducible from gel to membrane. Uniform buffer wicking carries your transfer evenly to completion across semi-dry, tank, and capillary blotting setups.

- Colony and Plaque Lifts - Supports lysis and denaturation steps on an absorbent, additive-free, high-purity cellulose paper surface.
- Membrane Gel Support - Holds the gel and membrane in even contact so transferred band patterns stay sharp and reproducible.
- 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.
- Protein Electroblotting - Drives complete protein transfer from gel to membrane with high absorbency and even, sustained buffer flow.
- Nucleic Acid Transfer - Backs the gel and feeds buffer for even electrophoretic transfer of DNA and RNA onto the membrane.
