WESTERN BLOT HIV MANUAL
Test procedure according to the manual of MP Diagnostics for HIV BLOT 2.2
It can be further completed by either chromogenic detection or. Protein transfer to a membrane: membrane stain and blocking and washing. Gel electrophoresis of protein: It may be performed by gel stain or. Sample preparation ( protein extraction). Paper towel, adhesive tape, worksheet (non-absorbent white paper). Sodium hypochlorite for decontamination. Aspirator with sodium hypochlorite trap. Precision Pipettes ranging from 20µl to 1000µl dispensing volume. Rocking platform (designed with a rocking speed range of 12 to 16Ĭycles per minute, and which moves through a 5° to 10° tilt to wash. Incorporated with HIV-1 viral lysate, a. The sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) technique is a prerequisite for Western blotting. A technique for detecting specific proteins separated by electrophoresis by the use of labeled antibodies. In Western blotting, the molecule of interest is a protein and the probe is typically an antibody raised against that particular protein. It is an Immunoblotting technique that relies on the specificity of binding between a molecule of interest and a probe to allow detection of the molecule of interest in a mixture of many other similar molecules. Western blot: It is applicable for transferring protein andĮastern blot: It is a biochemical technique used to analyze protein post-translational modifications (PTM) and is most often used to detect carbohydrate epitope.
Northern blot: It uses for transferring RNA. Southern blot: It uses for transferring DNA. Blot is a technique for transferring DNA, RNA, and proteins onto a carrier so they can be separated, and often follows the use of gel electrophoresis. It is also called immunoblotting and it is a technique for detecting specific proteins separated by electrophoresis by the use of labeled antibodies. Western blot test is a confirmatory test of HIV-AIDS and it is positive as shown above image.
