Development of Bio-Molecular Methods for Proteins and Aptamers/Oligonucleotide

BIOTECHNOLOGY

With the advent of the high-throughput technologies and exciting times for biology, the discipline of analytical methodology is experiencing a surge in the growth and the scope. Over the years, multitude of analytical techniques have evolved from a work-intensive, low sensitivity and high volume of reagent and sample consumption endeavor to automated, better selectivity, lower limit of quantification and cost-effective techniques for biological research. In this review, we give an overview of the currently available wide range of cell-based and noncell based and structural based analytical techniques, their principle and biological applications. The analytical techniques discussed in this paper includes surface plasmon resonance, electrophoresis, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, Western blotting, flow cytometry, fluorescence activated cell sorting, mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance and x-ray crystallography.
