Paperback. The advances made in molecular biology have allowed scientists to manipulate DNA. This means that molecular biology has become a tool for answering scientific questions that may be quite unrelated to genetics and cell biology. The techniques have become a means to an end, rather than an end in themselves. This work deals with this area. Num Pages: 220 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: PSAK; PSB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 281 x 207 x 16. Weight in Grams: 542.
