West-Q PVDF Membrane is hydrophobic, microporous, polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes with a pore size of 0.45μm. The West-Q PVDF Membrane is ideal for western and dot blots. The high binding capacity, high mechanical strength, and chemical resistance of the PVDF membrane makes it specifically useful for protein blotting. The combination of strong sample retention and low background binding generates excellent signal-to-noise ratios in colorimetric and chemiluminescent detection. The primary binding mechanism includes electrostatic and hydrophobic nature.
Low-fluorescence, pre-cut PVDF membranes for a variety of Western blotting applications save you time in the lab. Low-fluorescence PVDF membranes reduce background noise for improved sensitivity.
