Western Blot is a technique used for identifying the abundance of proteins within a sample.
It consists of different phases:
- Sample preparation
- Gel electrophoresis
- Proteins transfer
- Blocking
- Antibody incubation
- Protein detection and visualization
DBA ITALIA supports Western Blot experiments with an extensive product line.
