The impact of molecular biology on assessment of water quality: advantages and limitations of current techniques [PDF]
The advent of molecular biology has had a dramatic impact on all aspects of biology, not least applied microbial ecology. Microbiological testing of water has traditionally depended largely on culture techniques.

Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) analysis is an effective tool for the detection of novel intragenic PLA2G6 mutations: Implications for molecular diagnosis [PDF]
Phospholipase associated neurodegeneration (PLAN) comprises a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive neurological disorders caused by mutations in the PLA2G6 gene. Direct gene sequencing detects 85% mutations in infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy.

Molecular techniques for cancer diagnostics
Cancer cells differ from healthy tissues in their biological makeup. Recent research reported vast genetic and epigenetic heterogeneity, differences in the gene-expression profiles, and signal transduction networks in a broad range of cancers. These discoveries led to the development and clinical approval of several drugs that are more efficient and ...

Salivary Biomarkers for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Diagnosis and Follow-Up: Current Status and Perspectives [PDF]
Oral cancer is the sixth most common cancer type in the world, and 90% of it is represented by oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Despite progress in preventive and therapeutic strategies, delay in OSCC diagnosis remains one of the major causes of high

Molecular techniques for clinical diagnostic bacteriology
Moleküler yöntemler enfeksiyon hastalıkların patogenezinin ve epidemiyolojisinin anlaşılmasında çok önemli katkıda bulunmuştur. Polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu (PZR), en yaygın kullanılan hedef nükleik asit amplifikasyon yöntemidir. Bu yöntem ile tek bir nükleik asidin kopyası çok kısa bir süre içinde 107 kereden fazla çoğalır.

Non-Empirically Tuned Range-Separated DFT Accurately Predicts Both Fundamental and Excitation Gaps in DNA and RNA Nucleobases [PDF]
Using a non-empirically tuned range-separated DFT approach, we study both the quasiparticle properties (HOMO-LUMO fundamental gaps) and excitation energies of DNA and RNA nucleobases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, and uracil).
