Description
The iBlot® 7-Minute Blotting System efficiently and reliably blots proteins from polyacrylamide gels in 7 minutes or less without the need for additional buffers or an external power supply. A self-contained unit, the iBlot® device uses disposable blotting stacks with integrated nitrocellulose or PVDF membranes, offering the convenience of a bufferless, plug-and-play system.
Fits your gel size
The iBlot® 7-Minute Blotting System is designed to work with multiple polyacrylamide gel sizes, including the midi size, fitting Novex® Midi Gels (8 x 13 cm), E-PAGE™ 48 and 96 gels (13.5 x 10.8 cm), and mini gels (8 x 8 cm).
• Fast - protein transfer in 7 minutes or less
• High quality transfer - efficient transfers without bubbles or distortions
• Convenient - Self contained unit without the need for additional buffer or external power supply
• Reproducible - reduces blot preparation and running variability

"The iBlot system from Invitrogen is time saving. It is a convenient system for transferring your western blot and lets you finish your western blotting in a day-that includes running your gel to visualizing it. My blots always came out clean and its very user friendly. Having said that, it’s a little on the expensive side. Also watch out if you are going for the nitrocellulose membrane. If you are planning on stripping and r- probing go for the PVDF. They are better than the nitrocellulose. Happy Blotting!"   |

"I started use iBlot@7-minute blotting system 2 years ago. The blotting system is very useful. Really save a lot time. And very efficiently. Before, we usually transfer a membrane for more than 2 hrs, but now, I can finish in 7 minutes. I never worry about not going home on time!" |

"Only buffers purchased from the company will work properly and they don't disclose the compositions of them either. Not all the membranes are compatible." |

"The iBlot is a very easy to use system that allows you to blot proteins very quickly. However, the system requires that you optimize for your protein of interest." |

"This is a very convenient system with which you can save your time for more important things also this system ensures very accurate results as well as easy to use. Thus, I want to recommend this product to my lab colleagues who are novices in research." |

"iBlot system is efficient and user friendly, it saved us time in western blotting in comparison with the conventional blotting system. This iBlot 7 minute blotting system also gives decent results in the western blot experiments." |

"This product is easy to use and competitive. We are using this one frequently and it showed reliable data. But the price keeps going up. Even so I would like to continue to use it. Also I would like to find good sources for chemicals which is relatively cheap and has high purity." |

"It is very easy to use and saves a lot of time. You can start your western gel running in the afternoon and finish before end of the day. Very easy to use and apply on different gels from different company. However it does generate some heat." |

"I have been doing wet transfers for years; this product is a life saver. Seven minutes and then done. Expensive but well worth the purchase." |

"After years of 30-180 minute transfers, the iBlot system is a 7-8 minute breeze. The quality of the blot is as good or better than the old technique, but the speed of transfer makes overnight transfers a thing of the past. Some optimization is recommended, even if you think the default is giving great results, try a couple of the others to confirm." |

"The iBlot is a convenient way to speed up your research. We have been using the iBlot for about 3 years now. Our results using the iBlot were very similar to those with previous methods." |
| Jill Roberts Status: See all reviews Member since 2012 Organization: University of Kentucky Read more » | RATING: 4.3
"The iBlot system is very easy to use and very fast in comparison to traditional transfer methods. It is user-friendly, quick and works well, because of this I would recommend it. However, the only downside is that components of the transfer such as the copper gel and sponge are not reusable, which feels a little bit wasteful." |
