Azure Chemi Blot Blocking Buffer
This Chemi Blot Blocking Buffer was formulated to enhance signal and lower background by improving sensitivity. Enhances specific antibody-antigen interactions specifically for chemiluminescent Western blots.
- Provided as a 1x ready-to-use solution- no mixing or dilutions required.
- Size: 500mL
Features
Western blot membranes should be incubated in blocking buffer before antibody hybridization to prevent non-specific binding of antibodies. Blocking buffer can also be used for diluting primary and secondary antibodies during hybridization.
Azure Blot Washing Buffer
Wash buffers are an important part of the blotting process for removing unhybridized antibody and preventing background signal.
Blot washing buffer for use with Azure Imaging Systems, or any other Western blotting system.
- Provided as a 10x concentrated solution
- Size: 500mL
NOTE: While this Blot Washing Buffer is compatible with NIR Fluorescent Western blots, for the best results with NIR fluorescence, we recommend the Azure Fluorescent Blot Washing Buffer.
Azure Protein-free Blot Blocking Buffer
Protein-free blocking solution optimized for fluorescent Immunoblots and Western blots
Does not contain proteins. Azure Protein-Free Blot Blocking Buffer can reduce background in Western blots where the primary antibodies tend to cross-react with protein blockers like BSA, casein or milk protein. For low-quality primary antibodies that may require protein-based blocking agents, BSA or non-fat dry milk can be dissolved directly in the Azure Protein-Free Blot Blocking Buffer and then used to dilute the antibody.
Best used with assays where animal-based product usage is prohibited. Serves as an excellent blocking reagent for chemiluminescent Western blotting.
- Provided as a 5x solution
- Size: 200mL
Accuris Fast Extraction PCR Kit
The Accuris Fast Extraction PCR Kit features an exclusive single-tube solution that extracts genomic DNA in just 8 minutes.
