Invitrogen™ Power Blotter XL System

The Invitrogen™ Power Blotter XL System is a high-performance semi-dry blotting system designed for rapid and efficient protein transfer from polyacrylamide gels (SDS-PAGE) to nitrocellulose or PVDF membranes. The system integrates a Power Blotter Station with a Power Blotter Cassette XL, allowing for the simultaneous transfer of up to four mini gels or two midi gels in just 5 to 12 minutes.

The integrated power supply and pre-programmed touchscreen interface provide a seamless and customizable transfer experience, making it a superior alternative to traditional wet tank transfer and conventional semi-dry blotting methods.
