Development of PCR based method for the detection of genetic polymorphism of leptin receptor (LEPR) / Nurul Anis Syuhada Zulkifle

The problem of overweight and obesity among populations in Asia have been highlighted for more than a decade. As a result, many chronic diseases increase steadily with increasing body mass index (BMI). Overweight and obesity lead to various problematic metabolic effects on blood pressure, cholestero...
