The following technique is used to identify the enzymes in blood samples :

  • A.Southern blotting
  • B.Electrophoresis
  • C.TLC
  • D.Northern blotting

Answer: B

Electrophoresis is used to identify the enzymes in blood samples. Enzymes such as phosphoglucomutase, erythrocyte acid phosphatase and esterase D occur in several genetic forms, and these isoenzymes separate in a gel under an electric field and are stained to show the bands.

Southern blotting detects DNA sequences and Northern blotting detects RNA, so neither identifies an enzyme. TLC is used for small organic molecules such as drugs and dyes, not for the enzyme variants of blood.
