In 2003, the Human Genome Project made history by sequencing 92 percent of the human genome, which created breakthroughs in medicine such as the ability to identify specific mutations that may lead to ...

Massively parallel DNA sequencing technologies provide exponential increases in the amount of data returned from the sequencing process, relative to traditional (Sanger-based) techniques. Use of ...

A team of scientists report a new method for identifying any genome sequence located next to a known sequence. Sonication Inverse PCR (SIP) can be used to characterize any DNA sequence (near a known ...

Researchers have developed a DNA analysis toolkit designed to speed the identification of the multiple species in a biological community by analyzing environmental DNA from a sample of water or soil.

Monoclonal antibodies can be engineered and selected for in a method known as the hybridoma technique. Initially, a host animal is introduced to an antigen, leading to the generation of specific ...
