Overview of Western Blot Cartridge

The ScanLater Western Blot Detection Cartridge is a user-installable option for the SpectraMax i3, i3x and Paradigm Multi-Mode Readers. Leveraging this novel technology, researchers can:

  • Add western blot detection to their microplate reader within 2 minutes
  • Eliminate time-dependent substrate addition steps
  • Maintain femtogram to picogram protein sensitivity comparable to traditional western blot methods
  • Sustain blot signal stability for up to 30 days
  • Use a single software platform SoftMax Pro Software, to run both microplate and western blot detection assays
