objective: traditional methods for storing microbial dna samples use the low-temperatures of 4 °c, -20°c or -80 °c. the dbc card is a new method of storing microbial dna at room temperature. this study evaluates the stability and determine the best storing method of bacterial dna on the dbc card. methods: in this study, we used a pair of primers from the conserved domain of 16srrna designed to...

diamondoids are cage-like saturated hydrocarbons consisting of fused cyclohexane rings. thediamondoids family of compounds is one of the best candidates for molecular building blocks (mbbs)in nanotechnology to construct organic nanostructures compared to other mbbs known so far. thechallenge is to find a route for self-assembly of these cage hydrocarbons and their applications in thebottom-up s...

a novel ternary schiff base ligand (hl) of ono type and its copper (ii) complex weresynthesised using 2-aminophenol and o-acetoacetotoluidide. they have been characterised by theusual analytical and spectral methods. the interaction of the complex with calf-thymus (ct)dna has been investigated by uv-vis, viscosity measurement, cyclic voltammetry anddifferential pulse voltammetry studies. the re...

Medicinal plants have high importance in medicine and pharmacogonosy because of their secondary metabolites. Essential oils, antioxidants and flavonoids are the major compounds of many medicinal plants. These compounds especially antioxidants can increase oxidation of DNA in response to wounds. Nowadays, progresses in biotechnology such as molecular markers were used for phylogenetic relationsh...
