Magna is a pure unsupported nitrocellulose and is the membrane of choice for all protein or immunoblotting applications. Magna does not contain cellulose acetate, a low binding polymer. This assures the highest binding and sensitivity. (=100ug/cm2)
Pure nitrocellulose exhibits the highest sensitivity with very low backgrounds in all transfers, especially in protein blotting. Unlike PVDF, nitrocellulose wets out naturally, does not require methanol, and will not turn hydrophobic during the transfer process. Nitrocellulose is very easily blocked and does not need the many blocking steps required with PVDF.
Excellent results will be obtained with all detection systems: antibody/antigen, Radiolabeled, biotinylated, and chemiluminescent, giving you a great amount of flexibility in designing your procedure.
