Thermo Scientific Biodyne A Nylon Membranes are sheets of unmodified nylon that provide excellent binding characteristics for nucleic acid transfer, blotting and detection methods.

• Versatile and durable—achieve strong DNA binding by baking or UV-crosslinking without damaging the membrane
• Easy to use—pre-cut 8 x 12 cm sheets are the ideal size for standard mini-gel transfers and microplate dot-blots
• High signal-to-noise ratio—lower background than nitrocellulose and most other nylon transfer membranes

Biodyne A contains both negatively and positively charged groups, enabling it to bind many kinds of macromolecules

Properties of Biodyne A Nylon Membrane:
Composition: unmodified Nylon 66
Surface: 50% amine and 50% carboxyl groups, pI 6.5
Properties: provides excellent resolution, high sensitivity and extremely low background

The membrane is resistant to heat and solvents and will not shrink, crack or tear.
