Blotting techniques
The following table illustrates the different blotting techniques used to detect genetic material.
Here's a useful mnemonic:
SNOWDROP
Southern / Northern / O / Western
DNA / RNA / O / Protein
| Blotting technique | Material detected |
|---|---|
| Southern blotting | DNA |
| Northern blotting | RNA |
| Western blotting | Protein |
Here's a useful mnemonic:
SNOWDROP
Southern / Northern / O / Western
