Welcome to the 74th Issue of BioTechniques
In this issue of BioTechniques, we present a novel quantitative PCR-compatible assay designed to target intestinal microbiome markers, DNA extraction from frozen clotted blood, a new method for the preservation and metatranscriptomic analysis of small quantities of saliva, a technique for removing detergents from protein solubilized from inclusion bodies, and an overview of the methodology, principles, and applications of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
