In this article we will discuss about the principle, requirements and procedure for capillary blotting. Principle: Samples of proteins isolated on gel are transported out of gel by capillary action of buffer. The solubility of proteins increases by the presence of SDS and helps its migration to nitrocellulose membrane which binds it strongly on its […]
Capillary Blotting: Principle and Procedure | Molecular Biology
Technique of Southern Blotting | DNA | Molecular Biology
In this article we will discuss about the technique of southern blotting for transfer of DNA from gels to nitrocellulose. This technique was first described by E.M. Southern in 1975. It is useful for analysis of Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (RFLPs). Using gel electrophoresis in combination with restriction endonuclease analysis, a detailed and accurate physical […]
Immunoadsorption: Principle and Procedure | Molecular Biology
In this article we will discuss about the principle, requirements and procedure for immunoadsorption. Principle: Antigen-antibody complexes are formed when transferred proteins on nitrocellulose paper are allowed to react with diluted antis- era. This antigen-antibody complex bound to the nitrocellulose membrane are allowed to react with alkaline phosphatase conjugated anti-rabbit-IgG. The colour develops blue to […]
