Watson-Crick hybridisation of complementary sequences in nucleic acids is one of the most important processes necessary for molecular recognition in vivo, as well as nucleic acid identification and isolation. This book is devoted to a large family of in vitro DNA hybridisation-based experimental techniques. Several approaches, such as microarray hybridization, have become extremely popular tools for specialists in biochemistry and in biomedicine, while the potential of many other advantageous techniques seems to be currently underestimated. Written by an international team of authors, this book details the current state-of-art in hybridization techniques.
