Bio-Rad Trans-Blot Plus Cell

This used Bio-Rad Trans-Blot Plus Cell is a wet tank transfer system built for moving separated proteins from polyacrylamide gels onto blotting membranes as part of the western blot process. It is an enhanced version of Bio-Rad's classic wet transfer cell line, offering improved buffer circulation and cooling to support more consistent, higher quality transfers across a range of protein sizes. Labs use this system as the transfer step following SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, prior to antibody based protein detection. The cell's tank design fully immerses the gel and membrane sandwich, ensuring even ion distribution and reducing the risk of incomplete or patchy transfers that can occur with smaller footprint systems. Improved internal buffer flow in the Plus configuration helps maintain more stable transfer conditions during longer runs, which is particularly useful when transferring high molecular weight proteins. This system has been widely adopted in molecular biology and immunology labs that depend on consistent blotting results for downstream analysis. This Trans-Blot Plus Cell is offered used, having been removed from an active laboratory where it supported routine protein transfer work, and is sold in working condition. It is a solid option for labs seeking a reliable upgrade over basic wet transfer tanks without paying full price for new equipment. The unit is ready to be incorporated into an existing gel electrophoresis and western blotting pipeline.
