Whatman 3MM Chromatography Blotting Paper - 3030-221
Whatman manufactures under Cytiva's quality infrastructure, drawing on a cellulose-paper heritage that spans chromatography, electrophoresis, and blotting. Smooth 3MM Chromatography cellulose holds spotted samples and wicks solvent across paper chromatography runs. Grade 3MM Chromatography paper supports separations, electrophoresis, and sequencing-gel lifting while keeping transfers clean through additive-free cellulose and draws buffer through the gel by uniform capillary action. Where capillary transfer carries the signal, the absorbent 3MM Chromatography wick moves buffer evenly through Western and Southern blots.
Key Characteristics
- Uniform capillary wicking carries buffer evenly through the transfer stack
- Precut sheets drop straight into transfer stacks with no trimming
- Pure cotton-linter cellulose with no additives keeps transfers clean and reproducible
- Serves as a support medium for paper chromatography and electrophoresis
- Supports Western, Southern, and Northern blot transfer as the wicking layer
Clean, additive-free paper keeps your blots free of the contamination that ruins detection. Uniform buffer wicking carries your transfer evenly to completion across semi-dry, tank, and capillary blotting setups.
