| There are several key features to all DNA tests
|
| Hand in hand with the development of our understanding of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), genes, and their functions has been the explosion of technology for the clinical analysis of DNA and ribonucleic acid (RNA). A full description of all these processes is out of the scope of this chapter but an understanding of the basic principles of the methods and examples of some commonly used applications will become increasingly essential with the shift from experimental DNA analysis to diagnostic services providing genetic analysis in the clinical setting.
|
| There are several key features central to all the DNA methods currently used and these will be discussed prior to outlining some of the commonly used techniques.
