Nitrocellulose
| A hydrophilic membrane with high porosity
and thermostability (can be autoclaved up to 130 C). Higher
protein binding than cellulose acetate for most proteins. |

| Nylon |
|
|
| Strong, hydrophilic membranes are
resistant up to 180 C and autoclavable. Compatible with aqueous and alcoholic
solutions, as well as most HPLC solvents. Prewetting not required. Binds
proteins, DNA and RNA. |
