Can a woman get a blood test and find out the unborn babys DNA?
No the blood test will determine the DNA of the mother not the DNA of the baby
Which blood cell has DNA?
All groups of white blood cells have DNA. When a blood sample is procured for the isolation of DNA, the white blood cells are the target cells since they have nuclei containing DNA. Red blood cells on the other hand, contain neither nuclei nor DNA
What is the difference between animal and plant DNA extraction?
Plant DNA extractionPlant genomic DNA is more difficult to extract because of the plant's cell wall, which is removed by homogenization, or by adding cellulase to degrade the cellulose that makes up the cell wall. Also, the metabolites present in the plant cell may interfere with genomic DNA extraction by contaminating the DNA sample during the precipitation process.Animal DNA ExtractionPeripheral blood leukocytes are a main source of animal genomic DNA, but sample collection is difficult as blood must be withdrawn from the animal. Blood contains a range of compounds like proteins, lipids, white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets, and plasma, which can contaminate the DNA sample. The primary contaminant of animal DNA extracted from blood samples is heme, the non-protein component of hemoglobin.DifferencesThe differences between plant and animal DNA lie in the sequence of bases in the helix. Compounds found in plant cells are absent in animal cells, and DNA base sequences reflect this, as the genomic plant DNA is often larger than animal DNA. These differences affect extraction methods, as it impacts on yield and purity of DNA.
How valuable are red blood cells in DNA typing?
absolutley nothing red blood cells contain no DNA
Why are younger plants the best source for DNA?
The younger the plant tissue, the higher the DNA yield
You first isolated DNA using pus collected from bandages at a local hospitalsince white blood cells are a major compnent of puthey were your source of DNA?
Friedrich Miescher
First isolated DNA using pus collected from bandages at a local hospital since white blood cells are a major component of pus they were your source of DNA?
Friderich Miescher
Does serum contain DNA?
Serum is generally free from blood cellular components but when collecting serum sometimes few cells will be pipetted with the serum & that is the only source of DNA in the serum.
What is the difference between the target cell DNA and source DNA?
DNA is deoxyribo nucleic acid chains. If the DNA is taken from a source such as a micro organism or a plant is known as source DNA. Targe cells are where your construct is going to be transfected, target cells posses their own target cell DNA.
Can a woman get a blood test and find out the unborn babys DNA?
No the blood test will determine the DNA of the mother not the DNA of the baby
Why we can not extract DNA from RBCs?
We can not extract DNA from RBCs as they are without nucleus. only the source of DNA extraction is Leukocytes, RBCs are not good source of extraction but we can extract DNA from immature RBCs.
Which blood cell has DNA?
All groups of white blood cells have DNA. When a blood sample is procured for the isolation of DNA, the white blood cells are the target cells since they have nuclei containing DNA. Red blood cells on the other hand, contain neither nuclei nor DNA
Can DNA get extracted from a sterile cotton pad with blood?
Yes. You can get DNA from sterile cotton pad with blood for DNA finger printing.
What can do to get DNA?
you can get DNA samples from saliva or blood extractions and such
How can blood test be a solution to baby switching?
Blood tests can test for DNA. DNA tests can be used to make sure that the baby's DNA matches the parents' DNA.
Source of DNA for a bacterium?
inside the cell there is a tiny strand of DNA
Where can you not get DNA from?
dna isn't found in red blood cells
