The chemiluminescent Western blot assay proved more sensitive than the classic colourimetric Western blot assay. The chemiluminescent Western blot assay provided reproducible results, an objective evaluation of the results and a semi-quantitative analysis of the presence of antibodies against VP1 and VP2 in human sera. Most common experimental procedures for qualitative and quantitative protein detection in the laboratory are Western blot, ELISA and Immunohistochemistry. The level and duration of light generation depends on the specific substrate being used and the enzyme-to-substrate ratio in the system. The signal can be captured on film or by dedicated imaging equipment. Instead of radioactively labeled antibodies, enzyme-conjugated antibodies are used to convert a substrate to one that produces a light signal. Blue Pad or blue light conversion screen for DNA/RNA detection. Under optimal western blotting conditions, a chemiluminescent signal can last for 624 hr. Chemiluminescent western blot detection is a highly sensitive alternative to isotopic detection. It is designed for molecular biology laboratories. This was followed by chemiluminescence detection using the Clarity or Clarity Max Western ECL Substrate (Bio-Rad 1705062) and the ChemiDoc MP Imaging System with Blots.
#WESTERN BLOT CHEMILUMINESCENCE DETECTION UPGRADE#
The potential for diagnostic purposes was evaluated using reference serum samples and 75 clinical samples from patients with different clinical conditions and laboratory evaluations regarding B19 infection. The FUSION FX is a western blot and chemiluminescence imaging system with flexible upgrade paths. The chemiluminescent WB assay combined the sensitivity of chemiluminescent substrates and the objective evaluation of the luminescent signal obtained with a new system which consists of a videocamera-based, high-performance, low light level imaging luminograph connected to a personal computer for image analysis. A chemiluminescent Western blot (WB) assay was developed to detect the immune status against linear epitopes of parvovirus B19 structural proteins VP1 and VP2. The theory behind several commonly used western blotting detection methods such as colorimetric, chemiluminescent and fluorescent methods, and other less common methods, such as chemifluorescence, autoradiography, and immunogold labeling methods are highlighted below. Chemiluminescent detection is much more sensitive than colorimetric in the femtogram range compared with the picogram range of colorimetric detection.
