Gosselin_Stat_Immunoblot

This is the dataset associated with a scoping review that aimed at providing a first overview of statistical methods used in biochemical research involving immunoblotting (also referred to as western blotting), a technique frequently used to quantify proteins of interest. A reverse chronological systematic sampling was implemented to explore the PubMed online browser and analyse 2932 experimental conditions (i.e. experimental groups) in quantitative immunoblots from 64 articles published at the end of 2021. The statistical test (actual study size n = 67) and software (actual study size n = 61) used for each article and the sample size for each experimental condition were documented.

本数据集关联于一项范围综述（scoping review），该综述旨在首次概述涉及免疫印迹（immunoblotting，亦称蛋白质印迹（western blotting））的生化研究中所使用的统计方法——免疫印迹是一种常用于定量目标蛋白的实验技术。研究采用倒序系统抽样法对PubMed在线数据库进行检索，分析了2021年底发表的64篇定量免疫印迹研究中的2932个实验条件（即实验组）。研究记录了每篇文章所使用的统计检验方法（实际研究规模n=67）与分析软件（实际研究规模n=61），以及每个实验条件的样本量。
