How to Detect the Expression of One Particular Protein of a Cell

Read this article to learn about how to detect the expression of one particular protein of a cell. Identification of a specific protein in a complex mixture of proteins can be accomplished by a technique known as Western blotting, named for its similarity to Southern blotting, which detects DNA fragments, and Northern blotting, which detects mRNAs. In Western blotting, a [...]

Centrifuge: Introduction, Types, Uses and Other Details (With Diagram)

Read this article to learn about the types, uses, design and precautionary measures of centrifuges. Introduction: A centrifuge is a device for separating particles from a solution according to their size, shape, density, viscosity of the medium and rotor speed. In a solution, particles whose density is higher than that of the solvent sink (sediment), and particles that are lighter [...]
