Molecular genetics
Spectrophotometry
DNA extraction
Spectrophotography and DNA extraction are essential laboratory
techniques used in molecular biology, genetics, and various research
fields. Workshops focused on these methods provide critical hands-on
experience for students, researchers, and professionals, making them
vital for enhancing practical skills and advancing scientific knowledge.
Spectrophotography measures the intensity of light absorbed or
transmitted by a sample, providing valuable data about its
concentration and composition. In molecular biology, it is commonly
used to quantify DNA, RNA, and protein concentrations.
DNA extraction: is the process of isolating DNA from cells or tissues
for analysis. This fundamental technique is used in various applications
such as genetic testing, cloning, and forensic analysis.
