Gene Probes Principles and Protocols

The use of nucleic acid or gene probes as cloning or diagnostic tools has promoted significant advances in human genome mapping and in the isolation and manipulation of genes generally. In Gene Probes, Marilena Aquino de Muro and Ralph Rapley have brought together an outstanding collection of time-t...
