1. Briefly describe the technique of DNA profiling. What are the
practical applications of this technique?
2. What characteristics do karyotypes display?
ELISA and Western Blots tell us a lot about infections. What
does western blot do that ELISA cannot? What does an ELISA do
easier than a western blot? Hint: Think about how the assay is
done. How is it set up? What data does it give you?
Describe in some detail a western blotting and a ligand
blotting technique for the detection and comparison of relative
levels of a cellular protein (e.g. receptor) in two different cell
lines.
