[3dem] One-sided vs two-sided blotting

[Masahide Kikkawa]

One of the advantage of one-sided blotting is the “filtering” effect of the holey carbon membrane for filamentous/tubular samples. 
In this case, you can use lower concentrations of samples, because you can “concentrate” samples on the grid.

Do people have preferences for one or the other depending on the type of sample? Does one-sided blotting lead to thicker ice in general? Any suggestion/comment will be very welcome.
