Nucleic acid isolation and purification
is one of the most technically challenging and
labor-intensive procedures performed in any laboratory
whether it is for biodefense, drug discovery, or
diagnostics. Standardization of sample preparation is an
ongoing issue in the field. Whatever technology is selected,
success depends on a balanced combination of good
experimental design, sample preparation, primer/probe
design, amplification, detection, and analysis as well as
the selection of equipment and reagents. New technical
developments that improve the performance of nucleic acid
amplification and detection, as well as practical examples
of how these techniques are used, continues as the emphasis
of Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s 15th Annual Nucleic
Acid-Based Technologies meeting. Learn from savvy, seasoned
researchers as they share their experiences with their
latest technologies and cutting edge results.
