Protocols

Learn Northern and Southern blotting basics, with protocols and applications for macromolecule transfer to membrane supports.

In order to specifically detect an antigen or target molecule immobilized on a solid support, unoccupied binding sites on the support must be blocked against binding by probe and detection molecules.
