Trans-Blot® Cell
The Trans-Blot transfer cell is ideal for a wide variety of blotting applications. It can accommodate up to 3 PROTEAN II xi gels, 6 Criterion gels, or 12 Mini-PROTEAN® precast gels, Ready Gel® precast gels, or handcast gels.
Overview
The Trans-Blot® transfer cell is a versatile apparatus ideal for a wide variety of blotting applications.
Features and Benefits
- Multiple transfers accommodate up to 3 PROTEAN® II xi gels, 6 Criterion™ gels, or 12 Mini-PROTEAN® handcast or precast gels
- Flexible parameters with variable power settings provide from 30 V for overnight transfers to 200 V for rapid 1 hr experiments
- Electrodes can be positioned 8 cm apart for standard blots or 4 cm apart for high-intensity blots
- Temperature regulation with the super-cooling coil and a water recirculator is ideal for native enzyme (4°C) high-intensity transfers and extended transfers (up to 24 hr) without buffer depletion
- Hinged gel holder cassette clamping system eliminates slipping and ensures tight contact between membrane and gel
- Color-coded cassettes ensure proper orientation in the cell
Applications and Uses
- Western blotting
- Nucleic acid transfer
