Product Description
Cut antibody and reagent spend by incubating each membrane in a box matched to its actual size. MTC Bio Western blot boxes come in a range of footprints for strips, halves, full blots and mini gels, so more blots fit on a rocker or shaker at once and less solution is needed to cover each one.
This listing is for MTC Bio catalog number B1300-8BK, the Western Blot Box with Removable Lid. Every box is formed with square 90° corners and a uniformly flat floor, which keeps the liquid layer even and minimizes dead volume; a popular mini-gel format needs only about 4 mL. Most sizes use a hinged lid that limits evaporation during long incubations, and several footprints are also offered in opaque black to protect light-sensitive fluorescent or chemiluminescent detection steps. LIGHT LABS can help you choose the right MTC Bio format for your workflow.
Key Features
- Size-Matched Footprints – boxes sized to common blot formats, from narrow strips to mini gels
- Lower Antibody Usage – flat floors and 90° corners reduce the volume needed to cover a membrane
- Hinged Lid – helps minimize evaporation during blocking and antibody incubations
- Light-Blocking Black Option – opaque black versions protect light-sensitive samples
- Shaker-Friendly – compact boxes let you fit more blots on a rocker or orbital shaker
