Semi-Dry Maxi, 20 x 20cm Blotting System

These semi-dry blotters offer fast transfer times for DNA, RNA and protein blotting, typically 15 to 30 minutes. All units can be used for all types of blotting: Western, Southern and Northern via straightforward buffer and set-up procedures and are compatible with gel thicknesses from 0.25 to 10 mm without additional equipment. Each unit is compatible with the respective omniPAGE vertical gel system.

Semi Dry Blotting has the added benefit of economical transfers. Due to the very low buffer volumes, only a few millilitres of buffer are usually required per transfer. These semi-dry blotters use a screw cap that secures the blot sandwich and allows full pressure control, ensuring a consistent transfer. The electrodes, consisting of a platinum-coated anode and stainless steel cathode, exhibit virtually no corrosion, allowing many years of trouble-free use.

The even heat distribution across the blot sandwich ensures stable transfer times and prevents heat-related sample loss or transfer distortion. Being translucent, it allows viewing of the blot sandwich to ensure correct positioning and transfer. The electrode plates are completely separated to prevent arcing or damage.
