For many years, scientists have been extracting DNA from the bones of ancient humans, humanoids and animals to paint a picture of evolution and species movement. Despite what’s been portrayed in the ...

A study published this week showed how DNA could be extracted from bugs trapped in resin. If that sounds familiar, you've likely seen the film Jurassic Park. Before now, the business "Mr. DNA" speaks ...

Researchers have developed a new method to prepare bone powder for ancient DNA extraction. The method outperformed previous techniques of decontaminating ancient bones. Researchers from Max Planck ...

Scientists at Lund University have discovered for the first time that it is possible to detect insect DNA in the air. Using air from three sites in Sweden, insect DNA from 85 species could be ...

Scientists who extracted genetic material from an insect preserved in resin, for the purposes of a newly published study, are aware of the Jurassic Park overtones of what they're doing but assure the ...

DNA extraction methods are integral to many forms of research, providing clean, isolated genetic material for sequencing. This eBook explores various DNA extraction methods and techniques with key ...

In a recent study published in the Nature Journal, researchers described a new method to safely release deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) trapped inside the ancient tooth and bone artifacts, which was used ...
