The most successful players — both old and new — are those focusing on operational risk control rather than assay novelty.

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 blotting is a very useful and widely adopted lab technique, but the traditional procedure can be long and tedious. Researchers can assess only whether a blot image is captured at the end of ...

Western blot detection methods each have their own advantages and disadvantages. Choosing the right one can be a difficult decision. The basic protocol of the western blot – also referred to as the ...

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 ...

GE Healthcare Life Sciences recently launched the Amersham WB system for quantitative SDS-PAGE and Western blotting of proteins using fluorescence detection. The system was standardized for the entire ...

One lab technique that has been around since what feels like the dawn of time is Western blotting, and it doesn’t look like it's going away anytime soon. Utilized by scientists worldwide, the Western ...
