Gleaning a Human DNA Profile from Trace Swabs Collected from Animal Hairs
Animal hairs are an apt surface for retention of forensic trace epithelial samples. The aim of this study was threefold: to evaluate different methods of sample collection (moistened and dry swabs) and DNA extraction (Chelex® 100 method, Qiagen EZ1® DNA ...

Compressive Sensing DNA Microarrays [PDF]
Compressive sensing microarrays (CSMs) are DNA-based sensors that operate using group testing and compressive sensing (CS) principles. In contrast to conventional DNA microarrays, in which each genetic sensor is designed to respond to a single target, in

DNA methylation profiling in nanochannels [PDF]
We report the profiling of the 5-methyl cytosine distribution within single genomic-sized DNA molecules at a gene-relevant resolution. This method linearizes and stretches DNA molecules by confinement to channels with a dimension of about 250×200nm2. The methylation state is detected using fluorescently labeled methyl-CpG binding domain proteins (MBD),
