Novus developed the How to Teaching Series to help researchers and students learn about specific antibody applications. The below How to Guides provide detailed background, protocol and analytical information about ELISA, Western Blots and Immunohistochemistry. If you have additional questions, contact the Novus Technical Support Team.
- How to Run a Western Blot
Antibodies bind to specific sequences of amino acids, known as the epitope. Because amino acid sequences are different from protein to protein, antibodies can recognize specific proteins among a group of many. Therefore, a single protein, usually within...
- How to Run an ELISA
ELISA is an acronym for Enzyme Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay. Similar to Western Blots, antibodies are used to detect the presence of proteins or other antibodies, known as antigens. There are three major types of ELISAs: Indirect, Sandwich and Competitive...
- How to Perform Immunohistochemistry
Unlike ELISA and Western Blot, IHC has the ability to show where certain proteins are located within a tissue section at a fixed moment in time. But, just like ELISA and Western Blot, IHC uses antibodies to detect the presence of particular proteins. IHC...
- How to Use the Novus Explorer
This How to Guide provides detailed instructions of how to use Novus' bioinformatic tool, the Novus Explorer.
- How to Work with siRNA
This presentation will include a thorough explanation of the theory behind the uses of siRNA, an siRNA protein expression knockdown protocol using pre-made small siRNA and common problems and variables in both theory and method.
