A handbook of gene and cell therapy
by Nóbrega, Clévio, Mendonça, Liliana, Matos, Carlos A.
This is a reference handbook for young researchers exploring gene and cell therapy. Gene therapy could be defined as a set of strategies modifying gene expression or correcting mutant/defective genes through the administration of DNA (or RNA) to cells, in order to treat disease.…
DNA barcoding and molecular phylogeny
This book presents a comprehensive overview of DNA barcoding and molecular phylogeny, along with a number of case studies. It discusses a number of areas where DNA barcoding can be applied, such as clinical microbiology, especially in relation to infection management; DNA databa…
