This volume is intended as a primer for those who are interested in entering the field of circulating nucleic acids. The areas covered in this volume include: ·      Background and general biology of circulating nucleic acids ·      Methodology ·      Applications of circulating nucleic acids ·      Quality Assurance ·      Ethics.Advances in Predictive, Preventive and Personalised Medicine,2211-3509 ;5MedicineResearchBiologyResearchMedicine, PreventiveHealth promotionCancerBiomaterialsNucleic acidsMedicinal chemistryBiomedical ResearchHealth Promotion and Disease PreventionCancer BiologyNucleic AcidMedicinal ChemistryMedicineResearch.BiologyResearch.Medicine, Preventive.Health promotion.Cancer.Biomaterials.Nucleic acids.Medicinal chemistry.Biomedical Research.Health Promotion and Disease Prevention.Cancer Biology.Nucleic Acid.Medicinal Chemistry.612.0157Gahan Peter Bedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300235703321Circulating Nucleic Acids in Early Diagnosis, Prognosis and Treatment Monitoring1760683UNINA
