a.
To determine:
The difference and similarity between the process of restriction analysis used in traditional DNA fingerprinting with the procedure used in pulse-field gel electrophoresis.
Introduction:
DNA profiling is defined as the process of determining the unique pattern of an individual’s DNA. DNA profiling is also called as DNA typing or DNA fingerprinting. This technique is based on the principle to determine the variable number of tandem repeats present within the DNA sequence of an individual. Each individual has their unique variable number of tandem repeats.
b.
To explain:
The term “basic local alignment search tool” (BLAST).
Introduction:
BLAST technique is used in bioinformatics to compare or analyze the primary biological sequence information, which is present in the form of protein or
To explain:
The way in which the database can be used in the genotypical analysis for microbial identification.
Introduction:
BLAST technique is used in bioinformatics to compare or analyze the primary biological sequence information, which is present in the form of protein or nucleic acid sequences.
