two nuclear microsatellite dna loci along with partial sequences of mitochondrial dna trna pro -d-loop region were analyzed to assess the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of spottybelly greenling ( hexagrammos agrammus ). a total of 85 individuals were investigated from two different locations at the east and the south coasts of korea which are imwonjin (im) and tongyeong (tn)...

background: infestation of the skin by the “itch mite” sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis results in a contagious skin infection in humans called “sca-bies”. by resolving morphology issues, the present study was designed to be acquainted with itch mite by molecular markers. methods: the mite samples were collected from scabies patients by visiting government hospitals of twin city, pakistan. for su...

background: extraction of blood genomicdnais one of the main approaches for clinical and molecular biology studies. although several methods have been developed for extraction of blood genomic dna, most of these methods consume long time and use expensive chemicals such as proteinase k and toxic organic solvent such as phenol and chloroform. the objective of this study was to developed easy and...

amebiasis caused by entamoeba histolytica is still mentioned as one of the major health problems in tropical and subtropical areas. e. histolytica has recently been redescribed as two distinct species; e. histolytica and e. dispar. in the present study, we characterized the 70 kda heat shock protein (hsp70) of e. dispar at molecular level and compared it with that of e. histolytica. with these ...

Methylated and un-methylated control DNA is an important part of DNA methylation studies. Although human and mouse DNA methylation control sets are commercially available, in case of methylation studies on other species such as animals, plants, and bacteria, control sets need to be prepared. In this paper a simple method of generating methylated and un-methylated control DNA is described. Whole...
