Fluid dynamic simulations agree with observations from tracking fluorescent beads. In this isothermal system, we were able to drive exponential DNA replication with Taq polymerase. The results provide ...

Label a nebulizer with the name of the DNA sample to be treated, and cover the gas hose connection with Parafilm. Place the nebulizer on ice. The DNA may be fragmented using another method (for ...

A commercially available TaqMan MicroRNA Assay (Life Technologies) was used to measure miRs (miR9, miR29, miR203, let7f). PCR was conducted using Taq PCRx DNA Polymerase and a 7900 HT Fast Real-time ...

With so many at-home DNA tests now available to consumers, learning more about your ancestry is easier than ever. Plus, these tests make for thoughtful, unique holiday gifts. All you have to do is ...

Shelby Brown (she/her/hers) is an editor for CNET's services team. She covers tips and tricks for apps, operating systems and devices, as well as mobile gaming and Apple Arcade news. Shelby also ...

The improvement was particularly evident in the minimum read depth coverage of polymerase segments, which often face challenges with achieving ... significantly reducing contamination from the host ...

But James Watson and Francis Crick's claim was a valid one, for they had in fact discovered the structure of DNA, the chemical that encodes instructions for building and replicating almost all ...

It started with a finger bone found in a cave in the Altai mountains in Siberia in the late 2000s. Thanks to advances in DNA analysis, this was all that was required for scientists to be able to ...

Human genome sequencing methods. (NIH) These overlooked genes have been hiding away in regions of our DNA thought not to code for proteins. These regions were once dismissed as 'junk DNA' but it turns ...

Thanks to advances in DNA analysis, this was all that was required for scientists to be able to identify an entirely new group of hominins, meaning upright primates on the same evolutionary branch ...
