After a user try this device, he can not do without it!
Application Area: western blotting analysis
"The apparatus is easy to use, allows time saver and reduce chemical consuming. Further, we can use it to transfers in parallel 4 gel samples using 2 different condition to reach the optimal result for different kind of samples. In my opinion a good. A perfect investment for my lab"

Reproducible results using this transfer method.
Application Area:Western blots
"It is very easy to use. Transfers are great. Save time as spend 10-20 minutes only for transfers instead of 2-3 hr using the old traditional transfer method (including prep time). Less usage of chemicals. More environmentally friendly as less usage of chemicals. Since we bought a package blots, solutions, etc came together. It was a very good package cost-wise. If we buy individual stuff, it will be expensive"

Great.
Application Area:Biotechnology
"We have been using BioRad Trans-Blot for almost 5 years now and is one of the time saving instruments we have in our lab. After sales depends on the local business head where we didnt face any issues. It is value for money."

Great equipment. I save so much time and it's very easy to use.
Application Area:SDS-PAGE
"The Trans-Blot Turbo system is very efficient transfer apparatus and it can transfer protein to a membrane in 5-10 minutes. I get very consistent separation of proteins."

Great result.
Application Area:Molecular biology
"The transfer was fast and efficient. Most of the proteins transferred to the membrane. Good product!"

Saves time in research.
Application Area:Western blotting for protein transfer
"The product is easy to use with minimum buffer requirement as it is a dry blot techniques. It is a high throughput machine which can handle 4 transfers simultaneously in a record 7 min. It is really good value for money and time. The product is trouble free in the right hands and does not require much after sales service."

Turbo your protein analysis.
Application Area:Western blotting
"We trialed this and later bought 2 machines. This is a semi dry western blot system that has two cassettes that can do either 4 mini gels or two mini gels. You can use you own PVDF or nitrocellulose sandwiches, but we use the Bio-Rad prepared ones. Transfer time is between 3 and 7 minutes dependent on your protein. Initially I was skeptical, being brought up with wet transfer systems, with transfer times between 1hr and 1hr 30. Also, the fiddly cassette assembly with wet systems and for us, sometimes (rarely) variable results and having to diagnose the problem. This system used with the Bio-Rad sandwiches is plug and play. The reduction of waste is out BSL3 lab also makes this system ideal and it fits well with a quality system for repeatability. I checked transfer efficiency using silver staining on the gel after transfer and for us it was good. I would thoroughly recommend this."

Wouldn't swap with any other transfer system.
Application Area:Protein transfer
"The transfer system is very easy to use, you can have the choice of using the Bio-Rad transfer buffer or your own. It also doesn't need a lot of buffer to transfer and takes only minutes to finish. After-sales service are also excellent as usual and the system is very good value for money. I would very much recommend this to those labs running protein work."

Great equipment for fast and high quality Western blots.
Application Area:Western blot
"The Trans-Blot system is very easy to use, clean and transfer from SDS gel to nitrocellulose membrane is fantastic, even low quantities of protein are transferred well. High molecular protein complexes also transfer well. Their pre-saved protocols are great, so not trials required for the transfer settings."

Get results faster!
Application Area:Transfer protein from PAGE gel to membrane
"Transfers equally well as traditional wet transfers, but much, much faster. Saves a ton of time!"
The Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer System is a high-performance western blotting transfer system designed to provide rapid transfers with high efficiency. The system enables blot transfer of protein in as little as 3 minutes without sacrificing performance when compared with traditional tank protein blotting. The Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer Packs include an optimized buffer, membrane, and filter paper combination that provides superior blot transfers when paired with the Trans-Blot Turbo blotting apparatus. Protein blotting consumables are available in a ready-to-use, pre-packaged stack or in bulk quantities that require assembly.
This protein blotting system is a powerful tool in the western blotting workflow, enabling the visualization and identification of proteins for downstream analysis. The Trans-Blot Turbo transfer system can be used in the following applications:
Trans-Blot Turbo transfer packs come with either PVDF or nitrocellulose membranes:
Select the Trans-Blot Turbo RTA transfer kit for a low-fluorescence membrane option.
Use Bio-Rad’s Precision Plus Protein™ WesternC™ Standards and Clarity™ Western ECL Substrate for chemiluminescence detection on both film and digital imagers. See how the Trans-Blot Turbo transfer system fits into the V3 Western Workflow™ to streamline your western blotting process.
See the ordering information for Mini-PROTEAN® TGX™ Precast Gels and Criterion™ TGX™ Precast Gels to select the best gel for your application.
