TECHNOLOGY |
It uses an ordinary Eppendorf tube with a 7-mm circle of Whatman paper in it. If you put 5 micro.L of blood into that, the cells lyse & the DNA sticks to the paper. Then you put in a small amount of purification liquid, which takes all the cell debris off. You aspirate that out, add the second soln. - water - warm it up, & 15 min later you've got the theoretical amount of DNA. The inventors had treated Whatman filter paper with a blend of 4 chemicals that break open blood cells & leave pure, stabilized DNA on a piece of paper. One can store DNA sample at room T in a filing cabinet instead inside a bacutainer, in a bag inside another box, inside a refrigerator |

USES |
The market for storing collected DNA is huge: - The U.S.A. military is keeping in large refrigerators 1.3 million samples from servicemen - The Forensic Science Service in the U.K. is collecting DNA from criminals - One can replicate DNA directly from the paper by punching out 1-square.mm sample & doing PCR on it |
