I just know from Southern Blotting, that ssDNA binds to it

Double stranded dna binds to both nitrocellulose and nylon membranes and in Southern blotting the transfer of dna from the gel is double stranded dna having just been cut by a restriction enzyme. This comes up as a new question but from 4 years ago..can this be right?
