MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK

Main description:

At the time of the lightbulb's invention, not even the most imaginative thinkers could have predicted the prevention and treatment of disease through genes delivered by electric fields. In Electroporation Protocols: Preclinicaland Clinical Gene Medicine, top researchers provide hands-on protocols describing the process of non-viral delivery of genetic materials such as DNA, oligo-DNA, and RNA into targeted immune cells, tissues, and model animals in order to better treat disease. Following the successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, each method and protocol offers step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory instructions, with the benefit of several introductory reviews to aid investigators new to this exciting technology.

Feature:

Synthesizes electroporation, electroporation chemotherapy, and electroporation gene therapy, with a focus on the latter

Contains step-by-step instructions that ensure successful results

Provides notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls
