Description
Blotting paper grade BF 2 in 460 × 570 mm sheets is a high-purity paper grade for blotting and chromatography and for applications where the absorption properties of the paper are important. Each pack contains 100 sheets in a large format that suits gel blotting stacks, transfer assemblies and sheet chromatography, as well as absorption-driven steps in diagnostics and life-science work. The same absorbency profile also supports use as cover paper, protective underlay or bench protection when controlled liquid uptake is required on the laboratory surface. Pack net weight is 5,300 kg and gross weight is 6,000 kg, so the unit is practical for routine laboratory stocking and shared core facilities. Originating from Germany (Lower Saxony), this grade BF 2 blotting paper from manufacturer Sartorius brings a clean paper medium into everyday molecular biology, diagnostic and chromatography benches. Laboratories can deploy the sheets in classic blotting sandwiches, chromatographic procedures or as absorbent protective layers without changing established handling steps. High purity and consistent sheet dimensions help keep transfer, wicking and covering tasks reproducible across research and diagnostic workflows that depend on reliable paper absorbency.

Questions about Blotting papers/ Grade BF 2
What is this article?
Blotting papers/ Grade BF 2 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Blotting membranes & papers, inside Protein biology & Western blot, in Microbiology lab supplies.
A blotting membrane, nitrocellulose or PVDF, binds proteins transferred out of a gel. Pore size, 0.2 µm or 0.45 µm, and the format, roll or pre-cut, are the choices. PVDF is activated in methanol. The papers and the sponges around it in the cassette are part of the same stack.
Protein work separates a mixture, then asks which protein is which. Extraction and purification take the protein out of the cell. A marker shows the masses. A Western blot moves the separated proteins onto a membrane and probes them with an antibody. The membrane, nitrocellulose or PVDF, has to bind the protein and survive the washes. Antibodies and methods are in PubMed. Reference material is at ATCC.
