Omicron 160100RI Nitrocellulose Membrane 100mm×100mm 0.2µm 10pcs

Description

Product Overview

The Omicron™ 160100RI Nitrocellulose Transfer Membrane is engineered for high‑performance protein and nucleic acid blotting applications. Constructed from pure, unsupported nitrocellulose, each sheet measures 100 mm × 100 mm with a precise 0.2 µm pore size, delivering a uniform surface that captures up to 100 µg/cm² of target molecules. This membrane’s hydrophilic nature ensures rapid capillary action, reducing background noise and enhancing signal clarity in western blotting, immuno‑assays, and diagnostic confirmatory tests such as HIV and Hepatitis B detection. The pack of ten sheets provides laboratories with a reliable supply for routine workflows, minimizing variability and supporting reproducible results across multiple experiments. Its compatibility with standard blotting rigs and ease of handling make it a versatile choice for both academic and industrial research settings.

Usage

Designed for a broad range of laboratory environments, this membrane excels in applications that demand high protein binding capacity and low non‑specific adsorption. Researchers employ it for western blotting to visualize protein expression, for immuno‑blotting to detect specific antigens, and for nucleic acid transfer in colony or plaque lift assays. The membrane’s robust mechanical strength allows it to withstand multiple washing steps without tearing, making it suitable for intensive protocols that involve stringent buffer exchanges. Its performance is consistent across temperature ranges commonly encountered in bench‑top procedures, ensuring reliable outcomes whether the assay is performed at room temperature or under refrigerated conditions. The 10‑sheet pack supports high‑throughput workflows, enabling parallel processing of multiple samples or replicates within a single experiment.

FAQ

What types of assays are best suited for this membrane?

This membrane is ideal for western blotting, immuno‑blotting, colony lift, plaque lift, and nucleic acid transfer assays where high protein or nucleic acid binding is required.

Can the membrane be reused after stripping?

Yes, the membrane can be stripped and reprobed multiple times, provided that gentle stripping conditions are used to preserve the nitrocellulose integrity.

Is the membrane compatible with fluorescent detection methods?

Absolutely. The low background and high binding capacity make it suitable for both chemiluminescent and fluorescent detection platforms.

How should the membrane be stored to maintain its performance?

Store the sheets in a dry, cool environment, preferably in the original sealed packaging. Avoid exposure to moisture, which can affect pore structure.

What support is available if I encounter issues during my experiment?

Omicron Scientific provides a responsive technical support team reachable via email or phone. They can offer troubleshooting advice, protocol recommendations, and detailed product information to help resolve any challenges.
