General Information
1.1 Introduction and Features
Electroblotting is a faster, easier, and more efcient method to permanently transfer PAGE
gels to nitrocellulose and nucleic acids to nylon, than capillary (passive diffusion) blotting.
For a similar transfer, traditional “capillary blotting” can take 6-24 hours to complete
compared to only 45 to 90 minutes or less using electroblotting. The C.B.S. Scientic
Electrophoretic Blotting System comes equipped with; two electrode panels, four color-
coded gel cassette assemblies with sponge pads, electrophoresis tank with cooling
chamber and safety cover with attached power leads. The EBU-204 gel cassette will
accept gel sizes up to 10 x 10cm and can transfer up to 4 gels at one time.
