Features of PVDF membranes:
• High-quality—PVDF transfer membranes manufactured especially for protein transfer and western blot applications
• High-binding affinity—provides excellent protein binding (240 μg/cm2), blocks easily, and is compatible with most organic solvents, acids, and mild bases
• Convenient—pre-cut PVDF sheets are ready to use for transfer and blotting experiments from two standard precast and homemade mini-gels or one midi-size gel (8 cm x 13 cm); no need to cut your own membranes, minimizing damage and contamination
• Validated—membrane and filter when combined provide the thickness and buffer capacity needed for optimal performance in the Power Blotter System
The PVDF membrane (0.45 μm pore size, low fluorescence) has higher binding capacity than nitrocellulose. The membrane is compatible with commonly used detection methods such as staining, immunodetection, and fluorescence. The proteins bind to the membrane through hydrophobic interactions. This membrane has lower background levels and increased sensitivity for fluorescent probing than regular PVDF or nitrocellulose membranes.
