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
