Â
One such immunodetection method is widely known as Dot Blot. The method involves applying small volumes of antigens or test samples on protein binding membrane; the membrane captures and immobilizes proteins. The proteins immobilized on the membrane are probed with a specific antibody and a matching specific detection reagent. In this lab activity students screen test samples from a population and identify those who are carriers of a disease.
Â
Students learn Dot Blot technique and learn how this method is applied in the real world, for example in clinical testing, forensic, and research laboratories.
