Abstract

A blotting apparatus for transferring electrophoretically separated material from electrophoresis gels in a transfer stack. The device includes a resilient anode surface for more consistent transfer of DNA from DNA sequencing gels in the transfer stack to an immobilizing membrane. The anode surface is smaller than the cathode surface, and is mounted on a carrier arm which moves the anode surface over the membrane during transfer.
