Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Background Eliminator Kit
Description
Thermo Scientific™ Pierce Background Eliminator provides fast, easy removal of haze and artifacts on developed X-ray film to correct for overexposure of blots, whether from chemiluminescent Western blotting or DNA or RNA autoradiography.
Highlights:
For overexposed X-ray film – reverses development of silver-based autoradiography film removing silver emulsion from the film surface
Recovers and preserved data – evenly reduces developed signal over the entire film so relative intensity (densitometry) of bands is not altered
Optimizes for signal-to-noise – allows readjustment of overdeveloped film to obtain the best image with respect to background haze, speckles and oversaturated bands that need to be resolved
Saves time and resources – eliminates the need to repeat experiments or re-expose a new piece of film to obtain an optimal image
Recommended for:
Remove background from any application that uses X-ray film exposures including: Western, Northern and Southern blots that use Thermo Scientific SuperSignal Substrates and the Pierce Chemiluminescent Hybridization and Detection Kit; In-gel detection systems; Gel-shift assays; Ribonuclease protection assays (RPA)
