Question
Chapter 36.4, Problem 4MI
Summary Introduction
To determine: The microorganism for which the patient who have donated the serum for the given (fig 36.13) Western blot has been exposed.
Introduction: Molecular biology technique which is used for detection of a particular sequence of DNA in samples is called Western blotting. This technique includes the transfer of DNA fragments which are separated by electrophoresis to a filter membrane followed by DNA fragment detection with the help of probe hybridization.
