Beskrivning

DNA fingerprinting is a revolutionary technique that enables scientists to match minute tissue samples and facilitates scientific studies on the composition, reproduction, and evolution of animal and plant populations. As a tool for positive identification of criminals, it plays a particularly important role in forensic science. The first book to be published in the field, , DNA Fingerprinting is a practical guide to basic principles and laboratory methods as applied to a variety of fields including forensic analysis, paternity testing, medical diagnostics, animal and plant sciences, and wildlife poaching.

Recensioner i media

An interesting historical document that will also be of some use to those with different perspectives. . . . a good introduction to the basic technology of DNA fingerprinting. For anyone coming to this technique without a strong lab background, the refresher chapter on basic genetic principles is helpful, and the step-by-step approach to major technical procedures is well planned. . . . having this book is hand will save a novice weeks that would otherwise be spent thrashing through primary literature and textbooks to accumulate both the latest techniques and fundamental principles.
