This semi dry blotter offers rapid transfer times for DNA, RNA and protein blotting - typically just 15 to 30 minutes. This unit can be used for all types of blotting: western, southern and nothern via uncomplicated buffer set up procedures and are compatible with gel thicknesses from 0.25 to 10mm without the need of additional equipment.
Semi dry blotting has the added benefit of economic transfers due to very low buffer volumes - typically only a few mililiters of buffer are required per transfer. A screw down lid secures the blot sandwich and allows complete control of pressure ensuring even transfer. The electrodes, comprising a platinum coated anode and stainless steel cathode, will exhibit practically no corrosion providing many years of trouble free use. Uniform heat dispersion across the blot sandwich ensures stable transfer times and no heat induced sample loss or transfer distortions. The translucent lid allows viewing of the blot sandwich to ensure correct positioning and transfer is occurring correctly. Electrode plates are fully separated to prevent arcing or damage.
