METHOD FOR SPECIFIC IDENTIFICATION OF TARGET BIOMOLECULES

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for identification of specific target proteins in a protein sample following a detection procedure, such as a Western blotting procedure, wherein the membrane is probed with at least two primary antibodies directed against the same and/or different epitopes of the same target protein, and wherein specific binding to the target protein in a sample is differentiated from unspecific binding to the target protein by comparing the resulting sample patterns, such as bands or spot patterns, with each other. In a further step signals from the true target proteins are enhanced while signals resulting from unspecific binding are diminished.
