The BioXp ™ 3200 system is an automated personal genomic workstation that builds and clones DNA fragments in a process that is virtually hands-free. In an overnight run, the instrument generates ...

Scientists at Johns Hopkins, Rutgers, the University of Trento in Italy, and Harvard Medical School report they have developed a new molecular technique that can be used to isolate thousands of long ...

Our ability to cut and paste DNA from different sources and to assemble it into gene constructs has been one of the key drivers of biological research and biotechnology over the past four decades.

Biology is no longer being hampered by the cell environment thanks to cell-free technology that makes it easier to clone DNA. Located in Tokyo, Japan, OriCiro Genomics is a pioneer in cell-free ...

BBC America's hit series Orphan Black is entertainment's latest sci-fi series to look at the implications of cloning humans. But how far is science fiction from becoming science fact? On one side, ...

Molecular cloning is a technique used to create DNA experimental tools that are expressed in either bacterial or mammalian cells. Molecular cloning is defined as the isolation and amplification of a ...

A group of Russian and South Korean researchers has begun their attempt to clone a woolly mammoth, starting by extracting DNA from a spectacularly well-preserved specimen discovered in the Siberian ...

Earlier this year, researchers discovered what was reported to be the oldest ancient DNA on record—belonging to mammoths. The finding was documented in a study published in the journal Nature in ...

Like a storyline pulled from the movie "Jurassic Park," a professor at Harvard University has outlined steps for cloning a long-extinct Neanderthal baby. One's first question may be, "Why would you ...

In an interview with Der Spiegel, geneticist George Church made some headlines by claiming that it will be possible to clone a Neanderthal in the near future. "The first thing you have to do is to ...
