F.A. Davis Company Molecular Diagnostics by F.A. Davis Company
Lela Buckingham and Maribeth Flaws have developed the most comprehensive text available for the study of molecular diagnostics in the clinical laboratory setting. "Molecular Diagnostics" will give your students the background they need to understand the principles behind diagnostic tests that use molecular techniques. With its grounding in molecular biology and emphasis on the fluid nature of this topic as improved diagnostic technologies emerge, this text is the perfect balance between theory and application._x000D_ _x000D_
