Produktbeschreibung

John Walker and Ralph Rapley have collected a wide-ranging group of molecular and biochemical techniques that are the most frequently used in medical and clinical research, especially diagnostics. The authors-well-established investigators who run their own research programs and use the methods on a regular basis-outline the practical procedures for using them and describe a variety of pertinent applications. Among the technologies presented are southern and western blotting, electrophoresis, PCR, cDNA and protein microarrays, liquid chromatography, in situ hybridization, karyotyping, flow cytometry, bioinformatics, genomics, and ribotyping. The applications include assays for mutation detection, mRNA analysis, chromosome translocations, inborn errors of metabolism, protein therapeutics, and gene therapy.

Rezensionen

"The Medical Biomethods Handbook describes the theory behind some of the most widely used techniques in clinical diagnostic research. The book is well cross-referenced and chapters are clearly structured and have clear pictures and diagrams. Overall the book is a good reference work in any clinical diagnostic lab...It is good value for money and therefore I would recommend it to students reading applied biology degrees." - Marian Blokpoel, Imperial College London
