Blotting matrix

A blotting matrix, often referred to in the context of molecular biology and biochemistry, is a tool used in techniques such as blotting (e.g., Southern blot, Northern blot, or Western blot) to support the transfer of biomolecules like DNA, RNA, or proteins from a gel to a membrane. The matrix typically consists of materials that provide a solid surface for the biomolecules while allowing for effective binding and detection.
