Hi,
Nylon by a long shot.
We went though this a couple of years ago and tested all sorts of
different membranes from different companies. What we found was that for
DNA southerns with non rad. probes, MSI magnagraph won hands down.
This can be bought through Fisher. MSI Nitropure (nylon supported nitro)
was the best for protein westerns.
