DNA Fingerprinting using Microsatellite (SSR) Markers
Training Course at College of Science (2)
Department: Botany and Microbiology
Title: DNA Fingerprinting using Microsatellite (SSR) Markers
Training Objectives:
- To provide basic understanding of molecular fingerprinting and species identification.
- To build experimental skills by hands-on schedules on automated genetic analyzer.
Program Details:
Day 1-
- Lecture on molecular fingerprinting
- Laboratory-PCR setup for SSR markers
Day 2-
- Laboratory-Post PCR cleanup
- Laboratory-Capillary electrophoresis
- Laboratory-Collection of SSR data
Who Should Attend?
- Undergraduate and graduate students who have research interest in molecular fingerprinting, biodiversity or molecular conservation are the potential beneficiaries from this course.
- The maximum number of attendants in the coarse should not exceed (9) due to limited space in the laboratory.
Course Duration: 2 days
