Whatman GB003 Blotting Paper - 10427806
Whatman manufactures under Cytiva's quality infrastructure, drawing on a cellulose-paper heritage that spans chromatography, electrophoresis, and blotting. Heavyweight gel blotting paper soaks up and holds the transfer buffer for semi-dry and tank electroblotting. A versatile cellulose sheet spans Western blots, gel drying, and lift workflows while supporting the gel and membrane through semi-dry and tank transfer and protects sensitive detection with high cellulose purity. When electroblotting must run to completion, the high buffer capacity of gel blotting paper sustains an even transfer.
Key Characteristics
- 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
- 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
Clean, additive-free paper keeps your blots free of the contamination that ruins detection. Pure cotton-linter cellulose keeps your transfers clean and reproducible so results stay reproducible lot after lot.

- Nucleic Acid Transfer - Backs the gel and feeds buffer for even electrophoretic transfer of DNA and RNA onto the membrane.
- 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.
- Membrane Gel Support - Holds the gel and membrane in even contact so transferred band patterns stay sharp and reproducible.
