Used BIO-RAD Trans-Blot SD #9082877 for sale

BIO-RAD Trans-Blot SD is a lab equipment and accessorie used for blotting larger proteins in a semi-dry transfer system. It is designed to give high transfer efficiencies, improved reproducibility, and higher protein yields in a fraction of the typical transfer times as compared to the traditional wet transfer. Trans-Blot SD provides users with the ability to quickly and easily perform semidry transfers of proteins from standard vertical or horizontal gels to membranes. The device is composed of a robust design with significant improvements to the transfer chamber for maximum transfer efficiency. The transfer chamber is composed of a platen with rollers for contact and firm pressure, and a platform that can be adjusted to the desired height to ensure maximum transfer power. A patented cam-locking mechanism for the temperature control arms helps to maintain constant temperature during the transfer. In addition, the chamber is made to fit most vertical or horizontal gel formats, and remains dimensionally stable even after long continuous use. BIO-RAD Trans-Blot SD also utilizes a novel semi-dry transfer system where both buffer and the transfer medium can be applied simultaneously to the transfer chamber. This mechanism allows for an accelerated transfer time of approximately 15 minutes, which is much faster than traditional wet transfer methods. The electrical current applied in Trans-Blot SD maintains the proteins in their native conformation during the transfer process, thus ensuring a higher transfer yield and reproducibility. BIO-RAD Trans-Blot SD is supplied with several accessories which are required for the efficient and successful transfer process. These include a standard transfer cassette with adjustable buffer and transfer medium chamber, transfer power cables, a 1 mm spacer, and a Temp Delt™ for temperature monitoring. In addition, a standard transfer tray is provided that allows for the easy loading and unloading of samples. Overall, Trans-Blot SD is an efficient and reliable device for performing semidry transfers of proteins from standard or horizontal gels to membranes quickly and easily. It possesses numerous high-quality features which enable it to deliver superior results, and is the preferred choice for a wide range of laboratories.
