Microarrays and Microplates: Applications in Biomedical Sciences (Advanced Methods)
By Ian Day, S Ye
The ‘Advanced Methods’ series is a collection of books specifically designed for advanced undergraduate students, postgraduates, and established research scientists in the field of life sciences. Each title in this series covers current and important areas of research, providing both theoretical background and detailed protocols. The aim of these books is to equip researchers with sufficient theory and references to adapt and apply the given protocols to their own experimental systems.
One notable title in this series is “Microarrays and Microplates,” written by Ian Day and S Ye. This book explores the cutting-edge technologies of microarrays and microplates that enable large-scale analysis of DNA sequence variants, mRNA molecules, and proteins. It provides a comprehensive review of the various methodologies used to identify genetic variants and gene regulation, as well as guiding readers through the application of these methodologies and experimental procedures.
The book begins by introducing the concept of microarrays and microplates, explaining how these technologies have revolutionized the field of genomics and proteomics. It delves into the theoretical background of these techniques, providing readers with a solid foundation of knowledge before moving on to practical applications. The authors discuss the experimental design, sample preparation, and data analysis involved in utilizing microarrays and microplates for gene expression profiling, DNA sequencing, and protein analysis.
One of the key strengths of this book is its emphasis on the adaptation of protocols to specific experimental systems. The authors provide detailed step-by-step protocols and highlight the critical points that need to be considered when applying these protocols to different research scenarios. They also discuss the advantages and limitations of microarrays and microplates, helping researchers make informed decisions about which technique to use in their own studies.
The content of “Microarrays and Microplates” is supported by a wealth of references to recent studies and research papers, allowing readers to delve deeper into specific topics if desired. The book also includes illustrative figures and tables that help to clarify complex concepts and experimental procedures.
Notably, the book’s publication date is August 1, 2002, which means it may not cover the very latest advancements in microarray and microplate technologies. However, the foundational knowledge and protocols provided in the book are still highly relevant and valuable to researchers in the field.
Ordering “Microarrays and Microplates” is a wise investment for any researcher or student interested in genomics, proteomics, or molecular biology.
