Nitrocellulose microplate for immunology

Whatman has developed new nitrocellulose microplate technology that addresses immunology applications.

The new Whatman ELISA Unifilter offers speed, sensitivity and simple washing protocols with nitrocellulose filter plates, the company says, and ELISA performed with the Whatman ELISA Unifilter takes less time than traditional methods using regular microplates. The ELISA filterplate allows researchers to utilise the protein-binding characteristics of nitrocellulose in a standard well format.

This propriety technology allows for a large number of applications, from sample preparation, genomics and filter based assays to filtration technology, sample clean-up and isolation of nucleic acids. It is also suitable for other types of ligand binding applications such as hybridoma supernatant screening.
