Western Blot Products:

Kits, buffers, blocking agents, reagents, membranes, and substrates are for use in conducting western blotting and ELISA immunoassays, and they include accessories, modules, and replacement parts and solutions. Steps include sample preparation, gel electrophoresis, membrane transfer, antibody probe, detection, imaging, and analysis. The western blot (WB) is a common protein detection and analysis method. A protein sample is denatured to prepare it for gel electrophoresis. Following separation by electrophoresis, and then transferred (blotted) from the gel to a membrane for specific visualization. The blot is covered with a buffer that contains an antibody that will bind to specific parts of the protein being studied. A secondary antibody (an antibody to the primary antibody) is then added (to bind to the primary antibody). The secondary antibody is then visualized by staining, immunofluorescence, radioactivity, or other methods.
