What is another word for Western Blot?
Pronunciation: [wˈɛstən blˈɒt] (IPA) 
Western Blot is a widely used technique in biochemistry and molecular biology. It involves the transfer of proteins from a gel to a blotting membrane, followed by the detection of specific proteins using antibody probes. There are several synonyms for Western Blot, including protein immunoblotting, immunodetection, and protein blotting. Other related techniques include Southern Blot (for DNA detection), Northern Blot (for RNA detection), and Eastern Blot (for comparison of multiple samples). While Western Blot remains a popular method for protein analysis, new technologies such as mass spectrometry and next-generation sequencing are rapidly gaining ground in the field.
