This manual is a quick and comprehensive guide introducing students to the techniques in molecular biology which include recombinant DNA technology and molecular gene cloning. The techniques are widely used in many areas of research especially in biotechnology laboratories. Topics are covered in an easy-to-understand and concise manual protocol. Students will obtain hands on experience from start to finish in subcloning a gene into a vector, through gene amplification and other DNA manipulation techniques. 

in this edition, the manual is complete with laboratory exercise, tips and tricks in performing lab sessions and 'ready to use' lab report templets - designed for a typical 14-weeks semster. The 'project' approach to experiments is developes for this laboratory manual which allows students to follow a cloning project through to completion.

- This laoratory manual covers basic concepts and techniques used in molecular biology research laboratories.

- Experiments are student-tested and proven successful in real classroom laboratories.

- Experiments are designed to simulate a cloning project that would be performed in a real research laboratory.

- This 'project' approach to experiments provides studnts with an overview of the entire process.

- The complete prep-list cintains necessary, lists of chemicals and lists of equipment with detailed instructions to students.
