A range of plastic backed nitrocellulose membranes with a proprietary polymer in the membrane mix, for use in a lateral flow assay.
High sensitivity. Capture line shows high intensity, making low positives easy to read and improving the test range.
High consistency. Demonstrates exceptional intra- and inter-batch consistency for lateral wicking rates, making test development more predictable.
Long shelf life. No significant performance change within 18 months of storage under ambient conditions, simplifying membrane handling and storage operations.
Product versatility. Strong results regardless of capture reagent or analyte type. Can be utilized in virtually all tests.
Immunopore Membranes
Immunopore is a plastic-backed nitrocellulose membrane. A proprietary polymer is included in the membrane matrix to ensure rapid rewetting and low background signal, eliminating protein-binding interference commonly experienced with surfactants.
Nitrocellulose Membranes
Nitrocellulose membranes are a key functional part of lateral-flow assays. The membrane must provide sufficient protein binding to enable the production of a sharp and intense capture line, but at the same time the level of nonspecific background must be low for easy interpretation of results. Nitrocellulose membranes are available in a range of wicking rates and formulations. It has long been known that the wicking rate of a membrane has a significant impact on test sensitivity.
