Western blot tools and techniques evolving rapidly
Western blot is one of the most reliable methods to characterize protein expression. Using straightforward protocols and relatively inexpensive reagents, it provides a semi-quantitative visual assessment of even low-abundance targets. This is achieved through partial protein purification according to size, prior to highly specific antibody-based detection of the target of interest. Western blot has been [...]

SICM as a toolbox for airway surface liquid measurement
Dr. Rositsa Ivanova and colleagues in Dr. Guy Moss’s group in University of College London recently published a new paper on ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, which is about using nanopipette on SICM as a toolbox to measure the airway surface liquid (ASL) and epithelial cell function in many different ways that were only possible [...]
