In this video we take you through all the steps in our Western Blot (WB) Protocol so you can replicate our procedure and get reproducible and reliable results.

Contents:
0:00 Introduction
1:06 Solutions and Reagents
2:11 Sample Preparation and Protein Blotting
4:33 Membrane Blocking and Antibody Incubations
6:07 Protein Detection
6:45 Importance of Following the Recommended Protocol
8:37 Conclusion

Western blotting is a widely used immunoassay used by research scientists to monitor expression of a specific protein in a complex cell or tissue extract. It utilizes antibodies that recognize a specific protein of interest or a post-translational modification like phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, and ubiquitination. At Cell Signaling Technology (CST), we perform thousands of Western blots daily using a protocol that has been optimized for over a decade to develop and validate antibodies with exceptional specificity, sensitivity, and reproducibility.

We first list all the the solutions and reagents you’ll need. Then, we give detailed descriptions on how to prepare the sample, perform the protein blot and immunoassay, and detect proteins chemiluminescently. Finally, we describe critical experimental steps in Western blotting and explain how small changes to the protocol, like changing incubation times or dilution buffers, can affect the final outcome of your blot.

this was great for someone like me who hasn't done it yet

3:52 After the centrifugation, do you load the samples in the gel without discarding the supernatant layer?

Do you have offers for students to work western blot in your lab??

In the protocol on website, after transfer, wash membrane with TBS 5min. However, in this video, it said that we will wash with TBST 5min. So what is the best choice, TBS or TBST?

Can you recommend a method for storing pancreatic islets after collection from pancreas for western blot? Can the islets be pelleted and stored at -80? What solution should they be left in until western blot is performed? Thanks

I have a question regarding the buffer for the western blott. We use normally 20 % methanol in the solution and we have always used nitril gloves in contact with the solution. But currently I have discovered that these gloves are not suitable for methanol. We had never problems but now I'm afraid from that. Is possible that a 20 % methanol solution in water can penetrate the gloves?
