A Simple Method of Genomic DNA Extraction from Human Samples for PCR-RFLP Analysis

TL;DR: Hair samples proved to be a good source of genomic DNA for PCR-based methods and can also be used for the genomic disorder analysis in addition to the forensic analysis as a result of the ease of sample collection in a noninvasive manner, lower sample volume requirements, and good storage capability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles using Jasminum nervosum leaf extract and its larvicidal activity against filarial and arboviral vector Culex quinquefasciatus Say (Diptera: Culicidae).

TL;DR: It is concluded from the present findings that the biosynthesised AgNPs and AuNPs using leaf aqueous extract of J. nervosum could be an environmentally safer nanobiopesticide, and provided potential larvicidal effect on C. quinquefasciatus larvae which could be used for prevention of several dreadful diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protocol for optimal quality and quantity pollen DNA isolation from honey samples.

TL;DR: In the present study, an anionic detergent was used to lyse the hard outer pollen shell, and DTT was used for isolation of thiolated DNA, as it might facilitate protein digestion and assists in releasing the DNA into solution, as well as reduce cross-links between DNA and other biomolecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relevance of GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 Gene Polymorphism to Breast Cancer Susceptibility in Mizoram Population, Northeast India.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided for substantially increased risk of breast cancer associated with GSTM1 and/or GSTT1 homozygous gene deletions in Mizoram population and GSTP1Ile105Val polymorphism was related to breast cancer susceptibility or phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of DNA repair and xenobiotic pathway gene polymorphisms with genetic susceptibility to gastric cancer patients in West Bengal, India.

TL;DR: It is suggested that XRCC1 rs25487 and GSTP1 rs1695 can be considered as a risk factor associated with gastric cancer and might be used as a molecular marker for evaluating the susceptibility of the disease.
