Harvard University Researchers Develop Cloaked DNA Devices for Medicine and Treatments By John Nassivera | Apr 29‚ 2014 05:20 PM EDT Researchers from Harvard University’s Wyss Institute for Biology Inspired Engineering have created a cloaked DNA nanodevice that can avoid defenses in the body’s immune system. The technology’s design was given inspiration from world viruses‚ according to Gizmag. The nanoscale device could be used for diagnosing

Leigh Ann Santana DNA Extraction Lab DNA extraction is an important process because the DNA first needs to be purified away from proteins and other cellular contaminants. Cell are needed‚ because that is where the DNA is located. Inside almost every cell in our bodies is a nucleus‚ and inside each nucleus is about two meters of DNA. The following steps are needed to purify DNA from a cheek swab. Collect cheek cells‚ Burst cells open to release DNA‚ separate DNA from proteins and debris‚ and isolate

DNA sequencing From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia [pic] The term DNA sequencing refers to sequencing methods for determining the order of the nucleotide bases—adenine‚ guanine‚ cytosine‚ and thymine—in a molecule of DNA. Knowledge of DNA sequences has become indispensable for basic biological research‚ other research branches utilizing DNA sequencing‚ and in numerous applied fields such as diagnostic‚ biotechnology‚ forensic biology and biologicalsystematics. The advent of DNA sequencing

DNA profiling is a method of identifying an individual by unique characteristics of their DNA. A specific DNA pattern‚ called a profile‚ is obtained from an individual or a sample of tissue. This allows the comparison of the base sequence of two or more DNA samples to determine whether they are related. DNA profiling has many uses‚ in prevention of economic fraud‚ dietetic work‚ and classifying species‚ identifying bodies‚ forensic science‚ screening for disease‚ and investigating paternity.

A central organizing concept in biology is that life changes and develops through evolution‚ and that all life-forms known have a common origin. The theory of evolution postulates that all organisms on the Earth‚ both living and extinct‚ have descended from a common ancestor or an ancestral gene pool. This last universal common ancestor of all organisms is believed to have appeared about 3.5 billion years ago.[21] Biologists generally regard the universality and ubiquity of the genetic code as definitive
