Electrophysiological studies often demonstrate multiple, asymmetric mononeuropathies, usually axonal in type, that cannot be localized to typical sites of entrapment (Keswani et al. 2002). CSF analysis reveals nonspecific abnormalities, such as elevated protein and mild mononuclear pleocytosis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for CMV DNA and nerve or muscle biopsy may provide more specific diagnostic data (Roullet et al. 1994). 

DNA analysis, performance of polymerase chain reactions, clinical assays for pH, enzymes, proteins, oxygen etc., trace pollution monitoring and other sorts of biological analyzes are at the focus of recent developments [5]. Another reference lists environmental monitoring (including speciation), clinical monitoring, and quality control in production processes as applications of pTAS equipment in chemical analysis [30].

Additionally it has been our experience that mass spectrometry as a routine detection/identification technique for bacteria is not well received by microbiologists and clinicians who prefer less expensive, less complicated approaches to bacterial typing and identification, such as methods based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). For that reason we have adapted our MS approach to serve as a means of biomarker discovery that feeds candidate proteins or leads into development as PCR targets or other immunoassay techniques. 

Apart from the traditional organic and combinatorial/high-throughput synthesis protocols covered in this book, more recent applications of microwave chemistry include biochemical processes such as high-speed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) [2], rapid enzyme-mediated protein mapping [3], and general enzyme-mediated organic transformations (biocatalysis) [4], Furthermore, microwaves have been used in conjunction with electrochemical [5] and photochemical processes [6], and are also heavily employed in polymer chemistry [7] and material science applications [8], such as in the fabrication and modification of carbon nanotubes or nanowires [9].
