Although an increasing number of laboratories, both academic and private are moving in that direction, there are only a few books in the existing literature, and they deal only partly with diagnosis at the molecular level. Each chapter includes the principle and a brief description of the technique, followed by exmples from the authors' own epertise. Contributors are well-known experts in their field, and derive from a variety of disciplines, to ensure breadth and depth of coverage. * Examines widely used molecular biology techniques to screen for genetic defects causing inherited disorders * Includes state-of-the-art techniques for the detection of the underlying genetic heterogeneity leading to inherited disorders * Identification of genetically modified organisms (GMO's) * Forensic analysis and every-day issues in a diagnostic laboratory * Discusses ethics, genetic counselling and quality management.
