Current Protocols
Two of the renowned Current Protocols series are now available online to U of M patrons through a University Libraries license:
Current Protocols in Molecular Biology
Current Protocols in Cell Biology
These manuals contain detailed descriptions of standard laboratory methods used by researchers in molecular and cellular biology. Examples of these protocols include:
Molecular Biology:
In situ hybridization
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
Protein expression
YAC libraries
Cell Biology:
Cell cycle analysis
Digital electrophoresis analysis
Immunoblotting and immunodetection
Protein phosphorylation
To access either Current Protocols in Molecular Biology or Current Protocols in Cell Biology, search by their title in MNCAT, the Libraries online catalog (http://mncat.lib.umn.edu), or go to:
