Simple Western™ Automated Western Blotting Systems

Western blots are notoriously labor-intensive and challenging to perform. To overcome the challenges of traditional Western blots, Simple Western™ from ProteinSimple, a Bio-Techne brand, offers fully automated capillary Western blot analysis. The steps traditionally performed in Western blotting techniques like separation, immobilization, washing, and detection are automatically performed inside a benchtop capillary electrophoresis machine.

  • Simple Western offers high throughput Western blot analysis with fully quantitative results on up to 25 samples in just 3 hours, or 96 samples overnight.
  • Simple Western users enjoy industry-leading NIR/IR fluorescence detection sensitivity with Stellar™ Modules on Jess™.
  • Simple Western even replaces the laborious strip and re-probe of traditional Western blot testing with RePlex™, which removes the antibodies from the first round of probing for a second round of probing with fresh antibodies or total protein normalization.
