Capillary Electrophoresis of Nucleic Acids (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

The advent of capillary electrophoresis (CE) , with its power to separate and analyze very small amounts of DNA, has generated a host of DNA analytical procedures. In these novel and wide-ranging volumes of Capillary Electrophoresis of Nucleic Acids, an outstanding panel of hands-on experts and developers of CE equipment describe in step-by-step fashion their best cutting-edge methods for the detection and analysis of DNA mutations and modifications, ranging from precise DNA loci to entire genomes of organisms. This first volume of the set, Introduction to the Capillary Electrophoresis of Nucleic Acids, covers the practical and theoretical considerations behind the use of capillary electrophoresis for the analysis of small oligonucleotides and modified nucleotides. Along with detailed instructions ensuring ready reproducibility, these protocols offer time-tested advice on instrumentation, signal detection, the capillary environment, and the integration of mass spectrometry with CE. Several chapters are devoted to the analysis of small therapeutic oligonucleotides, nucleosides, and ribonucleotides by CE. The companion volume, Practical Applications of Capillary Electrophoresis, addresses techniques for high-throughput analysis of DNA fragments using SNP detection, mutation detection, DNA sequencing methods, and DNA-ligand interactions. Comprehensive and up-to-date, the paired volumes of Capillary Electrophoresis of Nucleic Acids offer an authoritative guide with easy access to fast, versatile, reliable, and powerful technologies for all those basic and clinical investigators analyzing DNA variation today.

Rezensionen

"These volumes comprehensively and accurately present CE technology and techniques with an emphasis on providing an understanding of the theory and instrumentation (Vol. 1), as well as detailed examples of successful analytical protocols (both volumes)...Chapters on the use of microchip and mass spectrometric detection are also included...Although numerous experimental protocols can be found in Vol. 1, it is clear that the intent is to communicate the underlying theory and capability of CE for separations. Vol. 1 should be of interest to the novice as well as the expert. In Vol. 2, each of the 31 chapters present specific examples of the use of CE...Nonetheless, these two volumes of the Methods in Molecular Biology series offer a representative and needed overview of the current theory and practice of CE of nucleic acids. These texts should prove very useful to both active investigators in this area and those seeking to learn more about the use and and capability of CE." - Clinical Chemistry Review for both volumes: "This two-volume set of books comprises 64 chapters of protocols for the analysis of just about every form and size of nucleic acids that one can imagine. Thus it rates near an "A" for its comprehensiveness." -Analytical Chemistry "...rates near an "A" for its comprehensiveness." - Analytical Chemistry
