Introduction Dyslipidemia is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is partially
determined by genetic variations in the genes involved in lipoprotein metabolism. Therefore …

Subject There have been a few studies on the association between the angiopoietin-like 3
(ANGPTL3) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the risk of cardiovascular disease …

Efficient DNA sample preparation from fungi with the rigid cell walls is still critical for
successful polymerase chain reaction (PCR), one of the basic platforms in molecular …

Objective. Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition
characterized by inflamed nodules, cysts, deep abscesses, draining sinuses in the axillae …

In this study, DNA was extracted from whole blood which had been collected and stored at-
20° C for 5–18 years, with the aim of determining the most suitable commercial DNA …

With the development of genomic technologies, the isolation of genomic DNA (gDNA) from
clinical samples is increasingly required for clinical diagnostics and research studies. In this …

DNA extraction from frozen blood clots is challenging. Here, the authors applied QIAGEN
Clotspin Baskets and the Gentra Puregene Blood Kit for DNA extraction to cellular fraction of …

Background Loss‐of‐function (LOF) variants of the angiopoietin‐like 3 (ANGPTL3) gene are
reported to be associated with serum triglyceride (TG) and high‐density lipoprotein …

Objective Bartonella are emerging bacterial zoonotic pathogens. Utilization of clotted blood
samples for surveillance of these bacteria in wildlife has begun to supersede the use of …

Objectives: Extraction of DNA and RNA is the first step in genomics and transcriptomics
studies. Phenol-chloroform method for DNA extraction has been the widely used method …
