1. Plural of immunoblot; laboratory technique or results in which proteins are separated by gel electrophoresis, transferred to a membrane, and detected using antibodies.
Usage: technical; biology/biochemistry; also called Western blots

Examples

• The researchers used immunoblots to confirm the presence of the target protein in the cell samples.
• Multiple immunoblots were performed to validate the antibody specificity.
• The immunoblots showed a clear band at the expected molecular weight.
• We analyzed the immunoblots using densitometry software to quantify protein levels.
• The immunoblots provided evidence that the treatment reduced protein expression.
