PR1MA™ Western Blotting Boxes

Minimize Antibody Waste & Maximize Efficiency.

No matter the size of your blot, there’s a PR1MA™ Western Blotting Box designed to fit it perfectly. Our selection includes boxes tailored for mini, half, whole, and strip blots, ensuring the most efficient use of space and reagents. By matching blot size to the correct container, you can reduce reagent and antibody consumption, save money, and maximize shaker or rocker capacity during incubation.

All boxes feature uniformly flat bottoms and 90º angled corners to ensure even reagent distribution and minimal pooling. For light-sensitive samples, opaque black blotting boxes are available to protect antibodies and blots from photodegradation.

With a hinged lid to minimize evaporation and sizes optimized for all common blotting applications, these boxes are a must-have for any lab performing Western blot analysis.

Key Features

• Sized to fit all common blot formats – mini, half, whole, and strip blots
• Reduce antibody and reagent usage with perfectly sized boxes
• Flat bottom and 90° corners for uniform reagent coverage
• Hinged lids reduce evaporation during incubations
• Light-blocking black boxes available for light-sensitive protocols
• Ideal for Western blotting, membrane staining, and antibody incubations 

Use the right-sized box to get better results while saving on expensive reagents.   

Specifications

RunBlue gels are more rigid and up to 10 times stronger than conventional precast gels resulting in more robust gels that can be handled with confidence. No tearing - an 8% gel can be thrown into the air and caught without breaking!

• RunBlue gels are manufactured using a unique method of polymerisation that results in more uniform and more complete polymerisation of the Acrylamide when compared to conventional, chemical based methods. This results in gels that have superior batch to batch reproducibility and practically eliminates exposure to un-polymerised Acrylamide.
• RunBlue gels incorporate a stacking gel that has been dyed (red for SDS) for the simplest ever sample loading. In addition, there is no comb to remove as the top of the teeth are fixed in place. This not only prevents the teeth from being accidentally torn off during comb removal but that all of the wells are uniform, with the teeth remaining vertical. This prevents sample cross contamination / inability to load desired Vol. The teeth also protrude above the lower front plate of the gel cassette preventing sample flow over into adjacent wells.
• Runblue gels are available in two different cassette sizes providing compatibility with the most common gel tanks and apparatus.  10x10 cm cassettes are compatible with Invitrogen/Life Technologies equipment and any other equipment designed for this format, such as the Hoeffer and Owl tanks. Our 8x10 cm cassette is designed to fit the Biorad equipment (Mini Protean I, II and II, Tetra etc).
• The resolving gel on RunBlue gels extends to the very bottom of the cassette which not only provides improved resolution but also there is no protruding gel that requires trimming prior to blotting. There is also no additional tape / covers to remove - simply take the gel from the pack and use.
• RunBlue gels are supplied in boxes of 10 gels. They are available in a 12 well format, covering a range of concentrations and gradients.
