Books in the Breakthroughs in Molecular Biology series

This text has been designed to help researchers understand and develop designer antibodies. Its practical approach makes use of state-of-the-art technologies for the production of recombinant human or mouse monoclonal antibodies.

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.
