Multiple fields of microbiology rely on techniques of microbial identification, such as in food microbiology for detecting contaminants, and in microbial ecology to characterize biodiversity. Image ...

DNA methylation is a form of epigenetics in which gene expression is encouraged or inhibited by the addition of a methyl group on cytosines. It is highly implicated in development, cell ...

Pyro Q-CpG from Biotage gives a new dimension to DNA methylation studies by quantitatively measuring the individual degree of methylation of consecutive CpG sites consistently over time. This reveals ...

Pyrosequencing, a non-electrophoretic method for DNA sequencing is emerging as a popular platform for DNA analysis (Ronaghi et al. 1996, 1998, 2001). This technology has the potential advantage of ...
