PROTRAN BA85 82mm 50/Pk
Whatman SKU: 10401116

Nitrocellulose Blotting Membranes, 0.45 µm, 82 mm, 50/pk - 10401116

Whatman's Nytran and Protran lines have long served as laboratory references for transferring and immobilizing separated proteins and nucleic acids. Hydrophilic nitrocellulose binds transferred proteins for clean immunodetection. Nitrocellulose keeps background low for clean, sensitive detection while resolving low-molecular-weight proteins with sharp bands and immobilizes proteins for sensitive detection. When a Western blot needs clean, low-background signal, nitrocellulose holds the protein through detection.

Key Characteristics

• High protein binding captures transferred proteins for sensitive detection
• Compatible with chemiluminescent, colorimetric, fluorescent, and radioactive detection
• Low background sharpens signal across detection methods
• Hydrophilic surface wets in transfer buffer without methanol activation
• Optimized for aqueous electrophoretic transfer and immunodetection

Strong, even protein transfer and immobilization set up the sensitive detection your blots depend on. Dependable protein immobilization keeps your Western blot quantitative through your blocking, probing, and imaging steps.

• Western Blotting - Captures transferred proteins for chemiluminescent, colorimetric, and fluorescent immunodetection workflows.
• Dot and Slot Blotting - Immobilizes directly applied protein samples for rapid semi-quantitative screening and detection assays.
• Protein Immunodetection - Binds transferred proteins for antibody-based visualization across all common detection methods reliably.
• Lateral Flow Strips - Anchors capture proteins on nitrocellulose for point-of-care diagnostic test strip fabrication and assembly.
• Low-MW Protein Detection - Resolves low-molecular-weight proteins with sharp bands and clean, low-background detection signal.
• Immunoassay Development - Immobilizes antigens or antibodies on nitrocellulose for membrane-based immunoassay development and testing.
