DNA fingerprinting in just two hours
RACI Plenary Two Tuesday 2:15pm
Steve Haswell, University of Hull
A hand-held DNA testing device developed by UK scientists is set to change the way forensic analysis of DNA is conducted.
Normally, DNA samples have to be transported back to the lab and need trained people using expensive instruments to conduct the analysis. Steve Haswell and his team at the University of Hull have developed the lab-on-a-chip technology that will reduce the time it takes to produce results from days to hours.
