These  units  are  designed  to  produce  an  extremely  uniform system  for  the  transfer  of  proteins  and  nucleic  acids  onto  a suitable  transfer membrane. The  very  low buffer  volume and current  (0.8  mA/cm2)  produces  very  little  heat,  preventing band distortion.

Transfers can be achieved in less than one hour, depending on the molecular weight of the molecules to transfer. Either single gels or multiple gel stacks can be used with these units.

The  units  are manufactured  from  rugged  acrylic  components and  are built  to  comply with  all  statutory  safety  regulations. One  electrode  is  manufactured  from  stainless  steel  and  the other  from  platinised  titanium,  therefore making  them  virtually corrosion-free. This prevents deposits being placed on the membrane  and  the  electrodes will  last  almost  indefinitely  as they will not deteriorate.
