Nitrocellulose membrane

Manufactured by Roche
Sourced in Germany, Switzerland, United States, United Kingdom

Nitrocellulose membrane is a semi-permeable material that is commonly used in various laboratory applications. It is made from cellulose that has been treated with nitric acid, resulting in a porous structure that allows for the transfer and immobilization of biomolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. The membrane's primary function is to serve as a support matrix for analytical techniques like Western blotting, dot blotting, and immunoassays.

Protein extracts were prepared using radioimmunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer (Beyotime, P0013B). Proteins were separated through a 4 to 12% SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane (Roche, 03010040001). After blocked by blocking reagent (Roche, 11096176001) for 1 hour, the membrane was incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C, followed by secondary antibody incubation.

Leaf fragment or lyophilised tissue, approx. 50–60 mg in weight, were ground in 300 μL of PBS with 0.5% (v/v) Tween 20, then Laemmli buffer with 100 mM DTT was added and samples were incubated at 65°C for 15 min. Samples were run on 12% polyacrylamide gel with 0.1% (w/v) SDS and then blotted onto a nitrocellulose membrane (Roche). The blot was blocked with 3% (w/v) BSA in TBS and then incubated with the TBS-diluted rabbit polyclonal anti-SHBsAg antibody (Cat. No. B65811R, Meridian Life Science). The AP-conjugated goat polyclonal anti-rabbit whole-molecule antibody (Sigma) followed. The molecular weight of protein bands, visualized after a reaction with the BCIP/NBT substrate (Sigma), were estimated using a protein size marker (MBI Fermentas).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
