More Description

With its high intrinsic sensitivity, flexibility, and ability to remotely image chemical analytes, fluorescence-based sensing has emerged as a mainstream research and development technology in fields such as fluorescence-activated cell sorting, DNA sequencing, high-throughput screening, and clinical diagnostics. This book reflects the most recent advances in the field, focusing on the emerging technologies with the broadest impacts. Internationally renowned authors discuss aptamers for sensing, techniques based on periplasmic binding proteins, the molecular beacon approach for DNA recognition, new developments in fluorophores and fluorescent labeling, and applications to practical problems.
