Nucleic Acid Detection: Methods and Protocols

by Dmitry M. Kolpashchikov (Editor), Yulia V. Gerasimova (Editor)

Overview

In Nucleic Acid Chemistry: Methods and Prools, expert researches in the field detail techniques and approaches for the detection of DNA and RNA. These techniques include the recovery of trace amounts of DNA for amplification and analysis, new qPCR chemistries, new application of isothermal amplification techniques, assays with visual or electric signals for point-of-care diagnostics, improvement of fluorescent in situ hybridization, and new signal amplification techniques. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory prools, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and practical, Nucleic Acid Chemistry: Methods and Prools seeks to aid scientists in the further study of detection for DNA and RNA.
