Whatman GB003 Blotting Paper - 10427818
Whatman's brand recognition and documented performance history support specification of its papers in standardized blotting and chromatography protocols. The thick cellulose sheet presses the gel and membrane together across the electroblotting sandwich. Pure cotton-linter cellulose contains no additives that could contaminate the transfer while letting fewer layers carry a complete transfer and supports the gel and membrane through semi-dry and tank transfer. When tank transfer runs long, the deep buffer capacity of gel blotting paper keeps electroblotting saturated to completion.
Key Characteristics
- Supports gel drying and colony or plaque-lift lysis and denaturation
- Pure cotton-linter cellulose with no additives keeps transfers clean and reproducible
- 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
Steady buffer wicking and even gel contact keep every band transferring cleanly across the membrane. Pure cotton-linter cellulose keeps your transfers clean and reproducible so results stay reproducible lot after lot.

- 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.
- 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.
- Gel Drying - Backs polyacrylamide and agarose gels during drying with thick, uniform, highly absorbent cellulose support.
- Nucleic Acid Transfer - Backs the gel and feeds buffer for even electrophoretic transfer of DNA and RNA onto the membrane.
