The visualization of the protein bands was performed with enhanced chemiluminescence kits (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). The band intensity was quantified using Image Lab 6.0.1 Software (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc). The relative expression of blood group antibodies is represented by the ratio of the band intensity between the experimental band and internal reference.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
