Life Technologies iBlot 2 Gel Transfer Device

Description

The Life Technologies iBlot 2 Gel Transfer Device is a dry protein transfer system designed for the efficient translocation of proteins from polyacrylamide gels to nitrocellulose or PVDF membranes. This benchtop instrument utilises a dry blotting technology that eliminates the need for traditional liquid buffers, streamlining the Western blotting workflow by reducing setup and cleanup time. It provides a consistent electrical current and pressure across the gel-membrane stack to ensure uniform transfer efficiency for downstream immunodetection.

Key Features

• Dry blotting technology eliminates the requirement for prepared transfer buffers.
• Integrated touch-screen interface allows for simple selection of pre-programmed or custom protocols.
• Rapid transfer times compared to traditional wet tank or semi-dry methods.
• Compact benchtop footprint suitable for laboratories with limited workspace.
• Compatible with both nitrocellulose and PVDF transfer stacks.

Applications

• Protein transfer for Western blotting workflows.
• Downstream protein analysis and immunodetection.
• Molecular biology research and protein characterisation.
• High-throughput protein screening.
