Molecular Biology
“Molecular biology is the branch of biology that deals with the interactions between the various systems of a cell, between different types of DNA, RNA and protein biosynthesis.”
Equipment Used
Real-Time PCR (RTPCR) – Cobas Taqman 48 – a completely automated, which enables both detection and quantification of the samples during the early phases of the reaction
