Western blotting is one of the most well-known and commonly used techniques in bioscience laboratories today. However, the Western blotting workflow is quite nuanced, involves multiple components, and ...

Western blotting (or immunoblotting) is a well-established biochemical technique that detects specific proteins in complex samples and has applications from basic research to the diagnosis of ...

Western blots have been a tried-and-true method for separating and quantifying proteins based on molecular weight, but they have not kept up with the continually increasing output demands of modern ...

Traditional western blot workflows require an appropriate sample load to detect both target proteins and loading control proteins. The discrepancy between these quantities often leads to oversaturated ...

A western blot is a laboratory method used to detect specific protein molecules from among a mixture of proteins. This mixture can include all of the proteins associated with a particular tissue or ...

A western blot, sometimes called a protein immunoblot, is an antibody-based technique used to detect the presence, size and abundance of specific proteins within a sample. The technique was developed ...

Western blot analysis is a method widely used in the lab today because of its versatility in detecting and measuring specific target proteins in a sample. However, in recent years the reproducibility ...

The most successful players — both old and new — are those focusing on operational risk control rather than assay novelty. Laboratories aren’t adopting processors because Western blotting is new. They ...

Detection of low-abundance proteins and/or detection of proteins from precious samples can be a major challenge when performing western blotting. The abundance of the target may be low because the ...

Reviewed by Michael Greenwood, M.Sc. Fluorescent western blotting is a powerful protein detection technique that offers numerous benefits in comparison to alternative chemiluminescent or chromogenic ...
