TL;DR

It is shown that electrically mediated siRNA transfer can suppress transgene expression in adult mice muscles and should provide an efficient approach for a localized delivery of siRNAs in various tissues and organs.

Abstract

The focus group interview allows researchers to obtain data about participants' feelings and opinions on a particular topic. Careful consideration must be given to the size of the group, the participants' backgrounds, the venue and the choice of moderator. It is not always appropriate to generalise the findings of focus group interviews on to a larger population.
