Biology is no longer being hampered by the cell environment thanks to cell-free technology that makes it easier to clone DNA. Located in Tokyo, Japan, OriCiro Genomics is a pioneer in cell-free ...
Scientists at Johns Hopkins, Rutgers, the University of Trento in Italy, and Harvard Medical School report they have developed a new molecular technique that can be used to isolate thousands of long ...
Molecular cloning refers to the replication and recombination of DNA molecules. The first cloning experiments were carried out in the 1970s, when restriction endonucleases were discovered. Restriction ...
Bacterial cells often possess molecules of closed, circular DNA, otherwise known as ‘plasmids’. They can also be present at much lower frequencies in certain eukaryotic cell types, such as yeast. They ...
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test kits for COVID-19 use what’s known as gene cloning – not reproductive cloning – to detect the presence or absence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, but social media posts ...
Pet cloning is always a hotly debated topic. From concerns about the surrogate animals, to the cost of the procedure, and even the quality of life for the cloned animals, never-ending discussions ...
What is Pet Cloning? Pet cloning is the process of creating a genetic duplicate of an animal. It involves taking a cell from the pet to be cloned, extracting its DNA, and inserting it into an egg cell ...
Movie prop used by Sir Richard Attenborough in the 1993 film Jurassic Park on view at the Amazing Amber exhibition in 2013. Somewhere in South America, a miner finds a piece of amber. Inside the ...
