Reduce immunodetection time by 80%
Millipore says its new Snap ID protein detection system allows researchers to produce higher quality Western blots 80% more quickly than with conventional immunodetection protocols
Typically, researchers lack the time to optimise their blotting protocols By shortening the time required for blocking, washing, and antibody incubations to 30 minutes, the Snap ID system allows researchers to optimise their immunodetection conditions for the highest quality results

Snap ID is compatible with all membrane types and detection methods, such as chemiluminescence and fluorescence.
Both sensitivity and specificity are equivalent or higher than standard immunodetection, with no additional reagent consumption required.
Antibody solutions can be collected and reused, for even more economical immunodetection.
Snap ID produces Western blots of very high quality because its unique, vacuum-driven technology and built-in flow distributor actively drive reagents through the membrane, ensuring even distribution.
Three different sizes of blot holders accommodate up to three blots each, and two blot holders can be run in parallel.
Thus, researchers can process up to six blots in parallel, quickly optimise conditions, and greatly increase their protein detection throughput.
