In one of the most amazing development in the field of science researchers have developed an inexpensive and quick method for extraction of single DNA molecule and positioning them in nanoscale slits. The technique is being labeled as simple and scalable and this can result in a faster sequencing technology in lab and in the future might also help in underpinning the ability of clinicians for obtaining customized DNA profiles fo patients.
The team responsible for this fabricated a mold for the creation of rubber template with slits narrow enough for confining single strands of elongated DNA. This technique is similar to threading of microscopic needle with DNA thread.
This will help the researchers in creation of large number of individual DNA molecules accessible for study and the lining of the molecules for sequencing and analysis is expected to become further accessible to the world of science.
