Development of Sensitive Methods for the Detection of Minimum Concentrations of DNA on Martian Soil Simulants

Development of Sensitive Methods for the Detection of Minimum Concentrations of DNA on Martian Soil Simulants

Several methods used for the quantification of DNA are based on UV absorbance or the fluorescence of complexes with intercalator dyes. Most of these intercalators are used in gels to visualize DNA and its structural integrity. Due to many extraterrestrial samples, such as meteorites or comets, which...
