Western Blotting for Ginseng Saponins, Ginsenosides Using Anti-ginsenoside Rb1 Monoclonal Antibody.
Ginsenosides separated by silica gel TLC were blotted to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane which was treated with a NaIO4 solution followed by bovine serum albumine (BSA), resulting in a ginsenoside-BSA conjugate on a PVDF membrane. The blotted bands were stained with monoclonal antibody (MAb).
