Pyrosequencing can be used to detect DNA and RNA from almost any source, and has applications in bacteria resistance screening, drug development, epigenetics, and many other fields. If no light is ...

Pyrosequencing technique is based on sequencing-by-synthesis principle. The method is based on the sequencing of single stranded DNA and now-a-days sequencing of double stranded DNA is also possible.

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 ...

All of the 83 individuals included in this study were genotyped for the C825T, the G(−350)A and the C1429T polymorphism. Genotyping of the polymorphisms was performed as previously described. 25 For ...
