Electrophoresis Transfer Module

The electrophoresis transfer module is equipment designed for the transfer of proteins from polyacrylamide gels to support membranes in Western Blot applications, providing a reliable and efficient system for the analysis of biomolecules in research and laboratory environments. Its operation is based on the electroblotting process, which allows the controlled displacement of macromolecules using an electric field.

The equipment structure integrates a robust frame with electrodes made of platinum, a material that offers high resistance to corrosion and thermal stability during the process. This design ensures consistent performance and a long service life under continuous use conditions.

The system incorporates two polycarbonate cassettes equipped with perforated plates that allow the simultaneous transfer of two gels, optimizing working time and the efficiency of the procedure. These elements are complemented by transfer pads that guarantee uniform contact between the gel and the membrane, promoting homogeneous transfer.

The chromatic coding present both in the cassettes and in the frame facilitates the correct orientation of the samples, reducing errors during assembly and ensuring the repeatability of the process. The equipment works with an adequate buffer volume to maintain stable conditions during transfer, which is usually carried out in an approximate interval of 45 to 60 minutes under controlled voltage conditions.

Its functional design allows its integration with vertical electrophoresis systems and compatible power sources, constituting a complete solution for laboratories that require precision in protein transfer and reproducibility in biochemical analysis techniques.
