UEM1

The objective of teaching molecular biology applications in Molecular biology discipline is to train engineers who master the concepts and tools necessary to exploit recent advances in the field. The module 'Molecular Biology Workshop 2: Applications on a Microbial Model' explores advanced genetic and molecular manipulation techniques applied in microbiology. The workshops offer numerous practical exercises enabling students to address microbiological and genetic inquiries using various techniques. These workshops include molecular identification of bacteria, bacterial transformation to introduce a new gene into bacteria conferring resistance to a specific antibiotic, and mutagenesis to study genetic functions and enhance production of alpha-amylase enzyme. Students will learn to proficiently use these essential techniques for research in molecular biology and microbiology and their applications in various fields such as biotechnology and medicine.
