Here we describe the substitution of fluorescently labeled ddUTP for dUTP in the TUNEL assay to allow quantification of generated fluorescence signals by epifluorescence microscopy. The capping of...
1 ), blogs and news outlets alike were buzzing about this new form of “synthetic life.” The media furor that resulted quickly incited questions about the future of synthetic biology, its moral...
