Abstract excerpt
We provide details of an inexpensive and rapid method for extraction of DNA from buccal swabs (including samples received through the mail) and from a range of other tissue samples. The procedure we have developed provides amounts of DNA adequate for several thousand polymerase chain reactions (PCRs), and we have validated its potential for long-term storage. Samples stored for > 4 years are of comparable...
