Forensic trace DNA: a review. [PDF]
Investig Genet, 2010 DNA analysis is frequently used to acquire information from biological material to aid enquiries associated with criminal offences, disaster victim identification and missing persons investigations. As the relevance and value of DNA profiling to forensic investigations has increased, so too has the desire to generate this information from smaller ...

Climate-assisted persistence of tropical fish vagrants in temperate marine ecosystems
Communications Biology, 2021 Laura Gajdzik et al. used population genomics, dietary DNA metabarcoding, and climate models to understand the influence of the 2010/2011 marine heatwave on the migration of rabbitfish from tropical environments into temperate environments in Western ...

Tracing the Photoaddition of Pharmaceutical Psoralens to DNA [PDF]
Molecules, 2020 The psoralens 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP), 4,5′,8-trimethylpsoralen (TMP) and 5-methoxypsoralen (5-MOP) find clinical application in PUVA (psoralen + UVA) therapy. PUVA treats skin diseases like psoriasis and atopic eczema. Psoralens target the DNA of cells. Upon photo-excitation psoralens bind to the DNA base thymine.

Ancient DNA preserved in small bone fragments from the P.W. Lund collection
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The Lund collection is one of the oldest subfossil collections in the world. The vast assemblage of subfossils was collected in the 1830s and 1840s by Peter Wilhelm Lund in Lagoa Santa, Brazil, and was shipped to Copenhagen in 1848, where it was stored ...

Digging for DNA at depth: rapid universal metabarcoding surveys (RUMS) as a tool to detect coral reef biodiversity across a depth gradient [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Effective biodiversity monitoring is fundamental in tracking changes in ecosystems as it relates to commercial, recreational, and conservation interests. Current approaches to survey coral reef ecosystems center on the use of indicator species
