BlastR Rapid Filtration Kit

BlastR Rapid Filtration Kit (50 filters)
$0.00

The BlastR™ filters allows for fast and reliable preparation of genomic DNA (gDNA)-free cell lysate for western blot or immunoprecipitation when used in combination with a denaturing buffer, such as guanidine, urea or high SDS based extraction buffers that usually produce copious viscosity.  gDNA contamination is a significant problem with denaturing buffers that can interfere with downstream applications like immunoprecipitation and migration of proteins in SDS-PAGE. Unlike sonication or insulin needle gDNA shearing methods, the BlastR™ filter effectively removes gDNA contamination while having no effect on the integrity of the proteins in the lysate. 

Product Uses Include

  • Reduce viscosity of samples 
  • Rapid isolation of protein extracts
  • Preparation of extracts from denaturing lysis buffers
