Pcr Strategies

PCR Strategieslt;/b> expands and updates the landmark volume PCR Protocolslt;/b>. It is a companion laboratory manual that provides a completely new set of up-to-date strategies and protocols for getting the most from PCR. The editors have organized the book into four sections, focusing on principles, analyses, research applications, and alternative strategies for a wide variety of basic and clinical needs. If you own PCR Protocolslt;/b>, you will want PCR Strategieslt;/b>. If you don't own PCR Protocolslt;/b>, you will want to buy both! Key Features * Concepts explained * Methods detailed * Trouble-shooting emphasized * Novel applications highlighted * Major sections * Key concepts for PCR * Analysis of PCR products * Research applications * Alternative amplification strategies
