The PCR Revolution
Basic Technologies and Applications
by Stephen Bustin
Pages: 344
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Edition: 2009
Language: English
ISBN: 978-0521882311
Description
The invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) won the Nobel Prize in in 1994 and remains one of the most important scientific discoveries of the twentieth century. More than 50,000 researchers in the United States use PCR replication technology, and yet a book has not been published on the subject in more than ten years. In this book, Dr. Stephen A. Bustin, a world-renowned PCR expert, examines in detail the latest innovations and the overall impact of PCR on many areas of molecular research. The book contains personal reflections, opinions, and comments by leading authorities on the many applications of the PCR and how thistechnology has revolutionized their respective areas of interest.
This book conveys the ways in which PCR has overcome many obstacles in life science and clinical research and also charts the PCR's development from time-consuming, low throughput, non-quantitative procedure to today's rapid, high throughput, quantitative super method.
Enjoy!
