Summary:PCR is the powerful technique used in molecular biology. This book examines the developments in this field. It discusses techniques that focus on gene discovery, genomics, and DNA array technology, which are contributing factors to the now-occurring bioinformatics boom. It covers quantitative PCR techniques, including the use of standards.
