Towards inexpensive DNA diagnostics

S Abramowitz. Trends Biotechnol. 1996 Oct.

Abstract

Methodologies to obtain DNA sequence information efficiently and accurately will provide the basis for a broad spectrum of economical products and applications to a variety of industrial sectors, in addition to healthcare. Such technologies will build upon the evolving molecular biology and instrumentation base that is serving a specific research market. This will require the efficient integration of technical advances in microchemistry, micromachining, separation technologies, detection systems, microelectronics and information technology, and will involve the expertise of engineers, physicists, chemists, mathematicians, computer scientists and molecular biologists. The biotechnology, microelectronics, software, instrumentation, pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries will be vital to this development.
