Optitran

Nitrocellulose Membranes for Protein- and Nucleid Acid Blotting and Further Immobilisation Techniques

  • Reinforced nitrocellulose membranes
  • Allows multiple reprobings without loss of membrane integrity
  • Excellent signal-to-noise ration

The Optitran membrane consists of pure 100% nitrocellulose cast onto both sides of an inert polyester support material. The support in no way affects transfer conditions or results and gives the membrane exceptional handling characteristics, allowing it to be reprobed repeatedly.

The Optitran nitrocellulose membrane provides high sensitivity with very low non-specific binding without stringent washing and blocking conditions using standard nitrocellulose protocols.

The combination of flexibility, strength and excellent signal-to-noise ratios makes the Optitran membrane ideal, especially when procedures involve repeated stripping and reprobing.

Optitran supported nitrocellulose membranes combine sensitivity, strength and savings.
