Amersham ECL Plus™ Western Blotting Detection Reagents

  • High sensitivity: broad dynamic range on film and imager, which allows a quantitative detection.
  • Chemiluminescent and chemifluorescent detection.
  • Extended signal duration¾up to 24 h¾enables multiple exposures to be made.
  • Compatibility with Hybond™ ECL™ and Hybond-P membranes.

Amersham ECL Plus™ Western Blotting Detection Reagents

Technical Information


Amersham™ ECL Plus Western Blotting Detection Reagents deliver superior sensitivity and a broad dynamic range. The acridan-based substrate used in ECL Plus Western Blotting Detection Reagents releases a high level sustained output of light. In addition, ECL Plus Western Blotting Detection Reagents generate an intense long-lasting chemifluorescent signal at 440 nm that can be detected on a fluorescence imager with the appropriate filters.

This versatile functionality enables you to carry out qualitative analysis (on film) and quantitative analysis using CCD imagers or laser scanners.

RPN2132 contains the following reagents, sufficient for detecting 1000 cm2 membrane:
  • ECL Plus Solution A, 100 ml
  • ECL Plus Solution B, 2.5 ml

RPN2133 contains the following reagents, sufficient for detecting 3000 cm2 membrane:
  • ECL Plus Solution A, 300 ml
  • ECL Plus Solution B, 7.5 ml

Western blot analysis of bcl-2 using ECL, and ECL Plus. Gels were loaded with between 25 to l50 µg of total heart protein. Both blots were exposed to Hyperfilm ECL for 15 min and film result scanned by document scanner; (a) ECL standard reagents, (b) ECL Plus reagents.
