The TurboBlotter™ system is a rapid, downward blotting device for high-resolution transfer of DNA and RNA. The conventional Northern/Southern transfer stack has been turned upside down in order to take advantage of gravity.
- Rapid - downward capillary transfer allows for alkaline buffer transfers in one hour and neutral (SSC) transfers in three hours
- Economical - reusable blotting device requires less buffer and blotting paper, and refill packs are available
- Compact - has a small footprint and is stackable for multiple, simultaneous transfers
- Efficient - no heavy weights are required on the top of the transfer stack, eliminating the messy set-up of standard upward capillary transfers
- Easy to use - simple to set up and works without power or vacuum
The TurboBlotter System is a rapid downward blotting device for high-resolution transfer of DNA and RNA. It provides high-resolution alkaline transfers of DNA in less than one hour, and performs neutral (SSC) transfers of DNA and RNA within three hours. Larger device is stackable for multiple, simultaneous transfers. Reusable and easy to assemble, refills use Whatman Nytran SPC membrane and Whatman 3MM Chr and GB003 or GB005 blotting papers for top performance. The conventional Northern/Southern transfer stack has been turned upside down in order to take advantage of gravity. No heavy weights are required on the top of the transfer stack, eliminating the messy set-up of standard upward capillary transfers.
