PCR Strategies expands and updates the landmark volume PCR Protocols. 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 Protocols, you will want PCR Strategies. If you don''t own PCR Protocols, you will want to buy both!- Concepts explained- Methods detailed- Trouble-shooting emphasized- Novel applications highlighted- Key concepts for PCR- Analysis of PCR products- Research applications- Alternative amplification strategies

The correct procedures you need for frustration-free PCR methods and applications are contained in this complete, step-by-step, clearly written, inexpensive manual.- Avoid contamination--with specific instructions on setting up your lab- Avoid cumbersome molecular biological techniques- Discover new applications

PCR is the most powerful technique currently used in molecular biology. It enables the scientist to quickly replicate DNA and RNA on the benchtop. From its discovery in the early 80''s, PCR has blossomed into a method that enables everything from ready mutation of DNA/RNA to speedy analysis of tens of thousands of nucleotide sequences daily.PCR Applications examines the latest developments in this field. It is the third book in the series, building on the previous publications PCR Protocols and PCR Strategies. The manual discusses techniques that focus on gene discovery, genomics, and DNA array technology, which are contributing factors to the now-occurring bioinformatics boom.Key Features* Focuses on gene discovery, genomics, and DNA array technology* Covers quantitative PCR techniques, including the use of standards and kinetic analysisincludes statistical refinement of primer design parameters* Ilustrates techniques used in microscopic tissue samples, such as single cell PCR, whole cell PCR, laser capture microdissection, and in situ PCREntries provide information on:* Nomenclature* Expression* Sequence analysis* Structure and function* Electrophysiology* Parmacology* Information retrieval
