Protein Forest files patent on chip based technology for quantitative western blotting

Protein Forest develops novel solutions based on its proprietary parallel isoelectric focusing technology, known as the digital ProteomeChip (dPC) for protein analysis and proteomics. The company has recently filed a patent (Systems and Methods for Quantitative Analyte Transfer) for a technology that virtually eliminates the variable loss of protein during Western blot transfers which can range from 10 - 40 per cent due to transfer membrane 'blow-through'. The technology described in this patent extends the utility of the dPC sample fractionation platform to allow direct, Western Blot quantitation using the same chip based sample fractionation developed for Mass Spec. This innovation enables the researcher to conduct quantitative Western blotting for the first time.
