Blotting Papers

> 3MM Chr

This acceptance and usage reflect the high quality, purity and consistency that are relied upon by researchers doing Southern, Northern and Western transfers. 3MM Chr paper is now available in the most widely used sizes. A medium thickness paper (0.34 mm) used extensively for blotting in electrophoresis for lifting of sequencing gels.

GB004
A thick gel blotting paper (1.0 mm), used for wicking purposes only. Provides higher absorbency and more consistent wicking than paper towels. Recommended for applications where fewer layers of gel blotting paper must still ensure a high capacity. Fewer layers of blotting paper reduce the risk of trapping air bubbles. Recommended for capillary blotting of nucleic acids.

GB005
An extra-thick (1.2 mm ), highly absorbent paper recommended for applications where fewer layers of blotting paper must siill ensure a high capacity. Recommended for semi-dry blotting of proteins.

17 Chr
A thick (0.92 mm) and highly absorbent paper.

31 ET
An extremely fast and thick paper (0.5 mm) with a fairly soft surface.

Features and Benefits
 

• Pure cellulose produced entirely from the highest quality cotton linters with no additives of any kind. Ensures that no contamination will occur during the transfer steps
• Manufactured and tested specifically for chromatographic techniques. This ensures the wicking capability and uniformity of capillary action that is important in obtaining clean and even transfers during blotting
• Whatman 3MM Chr is considered the industry standard for blotting procedures
• Convenient sizes available in sheets precisely cut to the most popular gel and transfer membrane sizes. Allows "out-of-the-box" usage and eliminates sheet-to-sheet variations
