Fluorescence: Blocking the Membrane
Fluorescent technology is relatively new but is a very powerful way to image Western blots. In this course, you'll learn about the blocking step in the fluorescent Western blot protocol and how you can reduce variability in your results by selecting the right blocker for your experiment.
