Description
This course manual instructs students in recombinant DNA techniques and other essential molecular biology techniques in the context of projects. The project approach inspires and captivates students; it involves them in the scientific experience, providing continuity to laboratory bench time and an understanding of the principles underlying the techniques presented. Molecular Biology is a must for any department, operating under budgetary constraints that offers or plans to offer a course in molecular cloning. Includes a glossary of over 200 terms important for understanding molecular biology Uses an inexpensive source of eukaryotic cells - great for schools on a budget Includes Methods Locator that provides instant access to the latest methods Contain clearly written, easy-to-follow, student-tested instructions: Sterile techniques Phage titration Gel electrophoresis of DNA Restriction enzyme digestion Plasmid isolation Transformation of E. Coli Recombinant DNA cloning Nick translation labeling Nonradioactive primer labelling Nonradioactive DNA detection Southern blotting Colony hybridization Purification of plant DNA RNA purification Northern blotting Purification of poly A+ RNA Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
