It seems to be very difficult to follow a proper pattern of publishing the western blot data. Everybody follows different patterns (ex. in the no. of samples or etc.). Somebody please tell me where I can get the rules for how to represent the western blot data?
There is no such rule, you must show your results the easy way to be viewed. One of the most used is a photograph of blotings
Make sure to have enough samples to probe what you are looking at. I always use 8 samples per blot. Do a right analysis of densitometry and take photographs of them. I agree with Luiz Oliveira, show your results in the easiest and simplest possible way. As long as you are precise with your results, you will be fine.
Simple, we have to show what we really see, without faking them :)
