About Antibody Notes

A research notebook that starts with antibody experience

Antibody Notes brings together antibody reviews and paper guides, with a focus on cell death, inflammation and Western blot. Find practical experience with an antibody, then follow an experimental question into the biology and evidence behind the bands.

Antibody testing and paper notes

Antibody reviews describe Western blot antibodies I have used: band clarity, background and treatment-related changes. All 15 reviews have Chinese and English versions, with brand and catalog details, experimental images and tested conditions. Paper guides follow experiments and results in the source article and connect them with relevant reviews.

Reviews retain original images, conditions and observations. Paper notes present complete figures, key findings and practical experimental implications.

From Xiaohongshu to this website

I previously shared most of these experiences on Xiaohongshu. This website makes them easier to find by antibody or catalog number, read and discuss. No account is needed to read or leave your experience.

Relationship with WB Figure Studio

WB Figure Studio is my software for organizing WB images. Use the header to visit its website and explore the software and tutorials. The antibody images and experiences here also provide material for discussion.

Discussion and corrections

If you notice an error in a catalog number, condition or description, leave a comment under the review and I will check it. Experiences with different samples, dilutions and treatments are welcome too.
