Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Fast Western Kit, SuperSignal™ West Pico, Mouse
Description
Thermo Scientific™ Pierce Fast Western Blot Kit, SuperSignal West Pico Substrate contains optimized reagents and protocol that allows picogram levels of detection and shortens typical Western blot development to less than 1 hour after the gel transfer.
These Fast Western Blot Kits require minimal hands-on time and yield results comparable to classic Western blotting with SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate.The kits contain all the reagents necessary to complete a Western blot being probed with either a mouse or rabbit primary antibody. Like other Western blotting methods, the included SuperSignal West Pico Substrate produces a chemiluminescent signal that is detectable using photographic or other imaging methods. The developed blots can be repeatedly exposed and stripped of the primary antibody and reprobed.
Highlights:
- Fast – picogram levels of detection in about one hour
- Convenient – no expensive hardware or vacuum required; no clogging issues
- Simple – optimized protocol makes Western blot analysis easier than ever
- Economical – no additional consumables or extra equipment to purchase
- Stable – all kit components are stable for one year stored at 4°C
- Easy – complete kits contain all components needed to block, probe and develop a blot with any standard mouse or rabbit primary antibody
Compatible with:
Pierce Membranes and Filter Paper; CL-Xposure™ Film for Western blotting; Pierce Western Blot Signal Enhancer; Restore Plus™ Western Blot Stripping Buffer

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Consider transferring to a different membrane or using a different detection method. We have observed increased sensitivity when using PVDF membranes in place of nitrocellulose. On PVDF membranes, using as little as 1 µg of total rat brain protein, PKC can be detected with alkaline phosphatase-mediated chromogenic detection in some cases using affinity-purified antibodies at a concentration of 0.5 µg/mL. Detection sensitivity can also be increased by using chemiluminescent detection, especially when using a SuperSignal West enhanced chemiluminescence subtrate (https://www.thermofisher.com/us/en/home/life-science/protein-biology/protein-assays-analysis/western-blotting/detect-proteins-western-blot/western-blot-detection-reagents/detection-technologies-western-blotting/chemiluminescent-western-blot-detection/supersignal-chemiluminescent-substrates.html) such as SuperSignal West Pico PLUS, SuperSignal West Dura, or SuperSignal West Femto. The secondary antibody should be used as recommend by the manufacturer and optimized as needed.
