A minimally destructive protocol for DNA extraction from ancient teeth
Ancient DNA sampling methods—although optimized for efficient DNA extraction—are destructive, relying on drilling or cutting and powdering (parts of) bones and teeth. As the field of ancient DNA has grown, so have concerns about the impact of destructive

Optimization of DNA Extraction Methods in Fresh Meat (Rat and Chicken Meat) based on Incubation Time
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) extraction method is the process of separating DNA from the sample. In this process, the DNA obtained must be protected from contamination by RNA, carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.
