Description

Pierce PVDF Transfer Membranes are made of high-quality polyvinylidene difluoride and provide high binding capacity for proteins and nucleic acids for western, Southern, and northern blotting methods. The 0.45-μm pore size make these membranes well-suited for a wide range of western blotting conditions and ideal for transfer of proteins >10 kDa. For best results, preactivate the membrane with 100% alcohol.

Features include:
• Re-probe characteristics—high mechanical strength makes PVDF an excellent membrane for stripping and re-probing
• Durability—compatible with most organic solvents, acids, and mild bases
• Compatible with commonly used transfer conditions and detection methods such as staining, chemiluminescence, and radiolabeling
• High sensitivity—exceptional binding capacity makes PVDF the ultimate choice for low abundance proteins
