Book describes the basic techniques that are used in molecular biology. These techniques includes various DNA manipulation techniques, cloning and bacterial growth. This book also describes the Green Fluorescent Gene, one of the novel achievements in the field of science. The reason for writing this book is that in our graduation and post graduation we heard about various molecular biology techniques but we know very little about these techniques. And even we know the techniques we are not much aware about the principle and the protocols of the techniques. I am writing this book for the...

Master GIS Applications on Modelling and Mapping the Risks of Diseases

Infections transmitted by mosquitoes, ticks, triatomine bugs, sandflies, and black flies cause significant rates of death and disease, especially in developing countries. Why are certain places more susceptible to vector-borne diseases? Modelling Interactions Between Vector-Borne Diseases and Environment Using GIS reveals how using geographic information systems (GISs) can provide a greater understanding of how vector-borne diseases are spread and explores the...
