Blotting: How It Works and The Different Types | MCAT Content

In this video, we will cover blotting for the MCAT. This includes an overview of the general technique, but more importantly how to interpret blots. From there we will explore the three different blots the MCAT wants you to know including Southern Blots, Northern Blots, and Western Blots.

As always we will round out our discussion of blots with a couple of practice problems so you walk away with an understanding of how to apply what you have learned.

U dont realize how much this is seriously helping. the amount of work you put into this to simplify concepts that college professors are literally paid for to teach but dont do well at teaching shows how skilled and passionate you are about teaching students. ur amazing and I hope you realize the great impact ur making

[Valeria-uzlb]

please continue these lab techniques, literally amazing

[emannzzz]

It is mind blowing how easy these videos are to help understand topics i thought was so extremely hard. I’m literally binging every single one of your videos. I feel like i could take the MCAT in a week after watching all your videos!

Taking the MCAT in January. Felt myself getting stumped on techniques throughout my practice exams. These are a godsend. Thank you so much.

phenomenal work. I went through the entirety of undergrad bio unable to understand blotting and gel electrophoresis (could not, for the life of me, figure it out). turns out what i was lacking was the foundation and linkage this whole time. you explained to me in <20 minutes (this vid and the gel vid) what i couldn't understand for four years. thank you so much; your channel is a godsend for all the premeds out there!!

[vishvanatarajan]

So much helpful, i am a grade 11 student studying biology and that helps me a lot!! Thank you ❤

[akankshabhatt]

Thankyou so much for your videos! I knew regarding snow drop but I really liked how you explained it in terms of transcription and translation like if transcription was blocked then what would we be measuring. Please do make more videos on techniques maybe like the more complex ones possibly like FISH analysis, in situ hybridization and other techniques :)
