Dear student Please find below the solution of your asked query 1)
The Eastern blot is a biochemical technique used to analyze protein
after translational modifications 2) Western blot is used to
separate and identify proteins In this technique a mixture of
proteins is separated based on molecular weight, and by type,
through gel electrophoresis 3) The Northern blot is used to detect
RNA northern blot is a laboratory method used to detect specific
RNA molecules among a mixture of RNA 4) Southern blotting is a
hybridization technique for identification of particular size of
DNA from the mixture of other similar molecules This blotting
technique is based on the principle of separation of DNA fragments
by gel electrophoresis Hpoe the above mentioned explanation clears
your doubts about the topic keep asking Regards
