VisULite ECL Western Blotting Substrate
R&D Systems, part of Bio-Techne | Catalog # VL001
Key Product Details
Assay Procedure
Refer to the product datasheet for complete product details.
Precaution
See MSDS.
Reagents Provided
200 mL VisULite™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate
Procedure Overview
Run SDS-PAGE gel and transfer to nitrocellulose or PVDF by established laboratory protocol.
Label and block the membrane.
Incubate the membrane with primary antibody. Note: High sensitivity of substrate may require adjusting established parameters for primary and secondary antibody.
Wash and incubate with appropriate HRP-labeled secondary antibody.
Wash and, at the completion of the wash, drain off all liquid and gently blot dry on a lab wipe or filter paper. Note: Do not let membrane dry completely.
Place membrane on clean plastic wrap and add approximately 100 µL of VisULite™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate per square centimeter of membrane. Allow to incubate for 1 minute.
Drain excess substrate and gently blot dry as above.
Place membrane in CCD camera system and expose according to manufacturer’s instructions or place membrane on clean plastic wrap (or equivalent) and expose to film.
Adjust exposure times as needed.
Limitations
- FOR LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. NOT FOR USE IN DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES.
- This reagent should not be used beyond the expiration date indicated on the label.
- Results may vary due to variations in blotting conditions.
- Note: Because VisULite™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate is a highly sensitive substrate, optimization of primary and secondary antibodies may be required to generate consistently reproducible results with strong signals and low backgrounds. See www.rndsystems.com/resources/protocols/western-blot-cell-lysate-protocol for additional optimization tips and hints that may further improve performance.
- Do not allow membrane to completely dry during procedure.
- Do not use Sodium Azide in any buffers used for detection. Azide is an inhibitor of HRP.
- Work quickly once the membrane has been exposed to VisULite™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate to capture maximum signal.
