Description

FastGene® Block & Go: The 3-in-1 Blocker & Enhancer

FastGene® Block & Go serves as both a blocking solution and a signal enhancer for Western blot analysis. Its powerful, protein-free formulation reduces time-consuming and labor-intensive Western blot procedures.

This unique solution provides blocking, primary antibody, and secondary antibody hybridization in a single step. Furthermore, it enhances the signal developed with HRP (horseradish peroxidase) or AP (alkaline phosphatase) substrates, leading to clearer, stronger results with minimal background.

Key Benefits:

  • 3-in-1 Step Procedure: Combines blocking of the membrane, primary antibody, and secondary antibody in one step.
  • Time-Saving: Saves up to 2.5 hours of hands-on-time compared to conventional protocols using milk or BSA.
  • Enhanced Antibody Signal: Achieves a 2-5 fold increase in signal intensity for most protein targets.
  • Increased Detection Sensitivity: Allows for the detection of proteins from as little as 0.5 µg of lysate.
  • Protein-Free: Reduces overall background and minimizes non-specific signals, ideal for phospho-antibody detection.
  • Flexible Use: Can be used in either single-step or two-step protocols.
  • Less Hands-On Steps: Eliminates the need for 3 separate wash steps, reducing membrane handling.
  • Broad Compatibility: Effective with any ECL substrate (HRP or AP) and compatible with both PVDF & NC membranes.

Supporting Data

Time-Saving Protocol

By combining 3 steps in one (blocking + primary antibody + secondary antibody), the procedure can be reduced by 1 hour (2-step procedure) or even 2.5 hours (1-step procedure) compared to conventional protocols.

Enhanced Signal Intensity

Detection sensitivity can be enhanced so that proteins from 0.5 µg lysate can be detected. Figure below used 30 sec (upper panel) and 2 min (lower panel) exposure time with an Azure 400 device.
