Nitrocellulose Membrane for Flow-Through Assay
AxiflowTM Flow-Through Membrane is an unsupported, paper-backed membrane constructed of 100% nitrocellulose. The nitrocellulose membrane is casted on a thick cellulose absorbent and the two are encapsulated together. The membrane is extensively used for vertical-flow assays and eliminates the problems caused by capillary rise.
The small pore size and membrane purity of the flow-through membrane enables high protein-binding capacity and greater sensitivity of the assays.
- Small pore size enables high assay sensitivity(0.2 µm to 0.8 µm)
- Manufactured for vertical-flow assays eliminating problems caused by capillary rise
- One hundred percent pure nitrocellulose provides high binding capacity
