Methods to maximise recovery of environmental DNA from water samples
The environmental DNA (eDNA) method is a detection technique that is rapidly gaining credibility as a sensitive tool useful in the surveillance and monitoring of invasive and threatened species. Because eDNA analysis often deals with small quantities of short and degraded DNA fragments, methods that maximize eDNA recovery are required to increase detectability. In this study, we performed exper...
متن کاملSpecies detection using environmental DNA from water samples.
The assessment of species distribution is a first critical phase of biodiversity studies and is necessary to many disciplines such as biogeography, conservation biology and ecology. However, several species are difficult to detect, especially during particular time periods or developmental stages, potentially biasing study outcomes. Here we present a novel approach, based on the limited persist...
متن کاملComparison of DNA preservation methods for environmental bacterial community samples.
Field collections of environmental samples, for example corals, for molecular microbial analyses present distinct challenges. The lack of laboratory facilities in remote locations is common, and preservation of microbial community DNA for later study is critical. A particular challenge is keeping samples frozen in transit. Five nucleic acid preservation methods that do not require cold storage ...
متن کاملMethods for Environmental Samples
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires the determination of important trace elements in a variety of environmental samples. Graphite furnace atomic absorption methods are recommended for some elements including As, Se, Cd, Pb, Tl, Sb, Ag, Be and Cr. Graphite furnace analyses can be difficult due to chemical and spectral interferences. Quantification in atomic absorptio...
متن کاملSynthesize of Ion Imprinted Polymer for Selective Extraction of lead (II) from Environmental Water Samples
A new Pb(II) imprinted mercapto functionalized Montmorillonite was synthesize by an easy one step reaction by combining a surface imprinting technique for selective phase extraction of Pb(II) prior to its determinations by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy. The modified sorbent was characterized by FTIR and studied for preconcentration and determination of Pb(II) in natural water samples. Th...
