Blotimistehnikaid
Blotimistehnikaid, often translated as blotting techniques, refers to a set of laboratory methods used to transfer molecules from one medium to another, typically from a gel electrophoresis membrane to a solid support for subsequent detection. This process is crucial for analyzing and identifying specific biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, and proteins.
The most common types of blotting techniques are Southern blotting, Northern blotting, and Western blotting. Southern
Northern blotting is analogous to Southern blotting but is used for the detection of specific RNA molecules.
Western blotting, also known as immunoblotting, is employed for the detection and analysis of specific proteins.
