Human DNA Isolation

DNA isolation is a process of purification of DNA from sample using a combination of physical and chemical methods. The first isolation of DNA was done in 1869 by Friedrich Miescher. Currently it is a routine procedure in Molecular Biology or Forensic analysis. In Hands-on “Human DNA Isolation” students step into the role of a clinical molecular biologist and use research-grade laboratory equipment to investigate DNA samples from human blood samples. Students will analyze the isolated DNA using gel electrophoresis and additional activities are included to reinforce learning about DNA.

Where can we exploit human DNA and its information?

           1.      In whole genome sequencing
           2.      In DNA foot printing (in Forensics)
           3.      In identification of single nucleotide polymorphism
           4.      In genetic Screening
           5.      In gene Therapy
           6.      In production of recombinant proteins and hormones
           7.      In personalized medicine
