Trans-Blot® Turbo™ Transfer System
The Trans-Blot Turbo system is a rapid protein transfer apparatus that can transfer protein to membrane in as little as 3 minutes. Trans-Blot Turbo transfer packs provide greater transfer efficiency in less time.
Western blot, protein biochemistry
The TransBlot system is very efficient and convenient for quick and effective transfers. It can handle high-throughput blot transfers, completing them in just 5 minutes.

western blotting analysis
The apparatus is easy to use, allows time saver and reduce chemical consuming. Further, we can use it to transfers in parallel 4 gel samples using 2 different condition to reach the optimal result for different kind of samples. In my opinion a good. A perfect investment for my lab

Western blots
It is very easy to use. Transfers are great. Save time as spend 10-20 minutes only for transfers instead of 2-3 hr using the old traditional transfer method (including prep time). Less usage of chemicals. More environmentally friendly as less usage of chemicals. Since we bought a package blots, solutions, etc came together. It was a very good package cost-wise. If we buy individual stuff, it will be expensive

We have been using BioRad Trans-Blot for almost 5 years now and is one of the time saving instruments we have in our lab. After sales depends on the local business head where we didnt face any issues. It is value for money.

SDS-PAGE
The Trans-Blot Turbo system is very efficient transfer apparatus and it can transfer protein to a membrane in 5-10 minutes. I get very consistent separation of proteins.

Western blotting for protein transfer
The product is easy to use with minimum buffer requirement as it is a dry blot techniques. It is a high throughput machine which can handle 4 transfers simultaneously in a record 7 min. It is really good value for money and time. The product is trouble free in the right hands and does not require much after sales service.

Western blotting
We trialed this and later bought 2 machines. This is a semi dry western blot system that has two cassettes that can do either 4 mini gels or two mini gels. You can use you own PVDF or nitrocellulose sandwiches, but we use the Bio-Rad prepared ones. Transfer time is between 3 and 7 minutes dependent on your protein. Initially I was skeptical, being brought up with wet transfer systems, with transfer times between 1hr and 1hr 30. Also, the fiddly cassette assembly with wet systems and for us, sometimes (rarely) variable results and having to diagnose the problem. This system used with the Bio-Rad sandwiches is plug and play. The reduction of waste is out BSL3 lab also makes this system ideal and it fits well with a quality system for repeatability. I checked transfer efficiency using silver staining on the gel after transfer and for us it was good. I would thoroughly recommend this.

Blot transfer of protein
An efficient and reliable device.
Review Date: 4 Jun 2020 | Bio-Rad
The Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer System is a high-performance western blotting transfer system designed to provide rapid transfers with high efficiency. The system enables blot transfer of protein in as little as 3 minutes without sacrificing performance when compared with traditional tank protein blotting. The Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer Packs include an optimized buffer, membrane, and filter paper combination that provides superior blot transfers when paired with the Trans-Blot Turbo blotting apparatus. Protein blotting consumables are available in a ready-to-use, pre-packaged stack or in bulk quantities that require assembly.
Features and Benefits of the Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer System
- Rapid blot transfer — 3 min transfers of mini or midi gels
- High throughput — can transfer 1–4 mini or 1–2 midi gels in a single run
- Greater transfer efficiency — higher transfer efficiency than other protein blotting methods
- Flexible design — allows the user to customize transfer conditions and is compatible with traditional semi-dry consumables
- Environmentally friendly — environmentally safe consumables eliminate disposal cost
Applications and Uses of the Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer System
This protein blotting system is a powerful tool in the western blotting workflow, enabling the visualization and identification of proteins for downstream analysis. The Trans-Blot Turbo transfer system can be used in the following applications:
- Western blotting
- Separation, transfer and analysis (V3 Western Workflow™)
- Protein blot transfers
- Evaluation of protein expression levels
- Immunological or biochemical analyses
- Protein-protein or protein-ligand interactions
