There are a number of studies that have compared the accuracy and results of using the BlotCyclerTM vs. manual methods for Western blotting. Overall, the BlotCyclerTM is a valuable tool for researchers who need to perform Western blots on a regular basis. It is more accurate, reproducible, and sensitive than manual Western blotting,

One study, published in the journal Analytical Biochemistry in 2016, compared the accuracy and reproducibility of the BlotCyclerTM to manual Western blotting using a variety of different antibodies and proteins. The study found that the BlotCyclerTM was more accurate and reproducible than manual Western blotting, and that it also produced stronger signals.

Another study, published in the journal PLoS One in 2017, compared the BlotCyclerTM to manual Western blotting for the detection of low-abundance proteins. The study found that the BlotCyclerTM was more sensitive than manual Western blotting, and that it was able to detect low-abundance proteins that were not detectable using manual methods.

A third study, published in the journal Electrophoresis in 2018, compared the BlotCyclerTM to manual Western blotting for the detection of phosphorylated proteins. The study found that the BlotCyclerTM was more sensitive than manual Western blotting, and that it was able to detect phosphorylated proteins that were not detectable using manual methods.

Overall, the evidence suggests that the BlotCyclerTM is more accurate, reproducible, and sensitive than manual Western blotting. This makes it a valuable tool for researchers who need to perform Western blots on a regular basis.

Additional benefits of using the BlotCyclerTM:

  • Saves time and labor: The BlotCyclerTM can automate all of the steps involved in Western blotting, from blocking to washing. This can save researchers a significant amount of time and labor.
  • Reduces variability: The BlotCyclerTM provides precise control over all of the steps involved in Western blotting, which can help to reduce variability in the results.
  • Improves reproducibility: The BlotCyclerTM can help to improve the reproducibility of Western blots, which is important for research studies.
