The MB504T – Methods in Molecular Biology (Theory) book offers an in-depth exploration of the most widely used methods in molecular biology, combining theoretical knowledge with real-world research relevance. It covers a broad spectrum of techniques, including nucleic acid isolation and purification, PCR and its variations, gel electrophoresis, DNA sequencing, molecular cloning, blotting techniques (Southern, Northern, Western), and gene editing tools like CRISPR.
The book emphasizes the scientific principles behind each technique, how they work, their applications in research and diagnostics, and common troubleshooting strategies. In addition, it explains quality control, experimental design, and bioethical considerations, making it an ideal guide for theoretical learning as well as pre-lab preparation.
With clearly illustrated diagrams, case-based examples, review questions, and glossary terms, this textbook ensures students develop a strong foundational understanding and confidence to work in molecular biology laboratories.
