Whatman 3MM Chromatography Blotting Paper - 3030-153
Whatman manufactures under Cytiva's quality infrastructure, drawing on a cellulose-paper heritage that spans chromatography, electrophoresis, and blotting. The 3MM Chromatography paper serves as both a separation support medium and a blot transfer wick. Medium-thickness cellulose holds buffer evenly across the blot and supports paper chromatography and electrophoretic separations. Where capillary transfer carries the signal, the absorbent 3MM Chromatography wick moves buffer evenly through Western and Southern blots.
Key Characteristics
- Precut sheets drop straight into transfer stacks with no trimming
- Smooth surface stays in even contact with the gel for consistent results
- Uniform capillary wicking carries buffer evenly through the transfer stack
- Pure cotton-linter cellulose with no additives keeps transfers clean and reproducible
- Supports Western, Southern, and Northern blot transfer as the wicking layer
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 with no additives to contaminate sensitive detection.
