Unsupported nitrocellulose membrane for all protein or immunoblotting applications
- Does not contain cellulose acetate
- High binding and sensitivity (≈100 µg/cm2)
- Easily blocked
Pure nitrocellulose exhibits the highest sensitivity with very low backgrounds in all transfers, especially in protein blotting. Unlike PVDF, nitrocellulose wets out naturally, does not require methanol and will not turn hydrophobic during the transfer process. Easily blocked, nitrocellulose does not need the many blocking steps required with PVDF. Excellent results with all detection systems: antibody/antigen, radiolabeled, biotinylated and chemiluminescent for extreme flexibility in procedure design.
