How to Arrange Sample Order in a WB Experiment?

When arranging sample order in a Western Blot (WB) experiment, consider the following:

 

1. Control Samples

Place positive controls (expressing the target protein) and negative controls (not expressing the target protein) at the beginning and end for comparison and validation.

 

2.Replicates

Arrange replicate samples side by side to facilitate comparison and analysis.

 

3.Loading Control

Ensure each sample group includes an internal control protein (e.g., GAPDH or β-actin) for normalization.

 

Proper sample arrangement ensures experimental design aligns with research goals while maintaining data comparability and reproducibility.
