Quotes about Fingerprinting from the world's top natural health / natural living authors
"According to a booklet called Goji: The Himalayan Health Secret, tests involving infrared molecular bonds, a spectroscopic fingerprinting analysis and a mathematical formula called the Fourier Transform suggest that the goji is "quite possibly the most nutritionally dense food on the planet!" The book's author, Dr. Earl Mindell (who bills himself as "the world's leading nutritionist"), starts by asking readers how long they want to live. "Eighty years? Ninety? One hundred-plus years? Perhaps even forever?" - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)
| "Molecular fingerprinting techniques to monitor changes in the composition of bacterial community: terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP), denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE)
3. Genotyping: Rapid amplification polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR), enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-polymerase chain reaction (ERIC-PCR) 4. Other novel molecular methods under development: microarray, magnetic-immuno PCR, recA gene analysis
There are other molecular techniques that have been developed to study microbial communities in the environment." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.)

DNA fingerprinting. Technicians reading DNA fingerprints.
DNA fingerprinting A technique by which the DNA of an individual can be compared with that found in a sample or another individual, fa DNA fingerprinting is acepted by most courts as evidence for establishing paternity, and increasingly is being accepted as evidence in criminal trials.
Edison, Thomas A. An American inventor of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He patented more than a thousand devices, including the phonograph and the incandescent light bulb." - E.

| "In the days before fingerprinting, identifying bodies without heads was not possible.81
Stripped of his position as the head of the university, Pernkopf was never put on trial for his work. He was held in prison for two years as an "incriminated person," then became a "lesser incriminated person," and finally was rehabilitated through a formal process of denazification. He died in 1955, having spent the last years of his life working at the university in pathology and overseeing the production of yet another edition of his atlas in 1950." - Devra Davis, The Secret History of the War on Cancer (Get the book.)

| "Utilizing DNA fingerprinting techniques and developing cutting-edge gene chip-based applications will assure standardization for the quality of botanicals and products of Chinese traditional and herb drugs. Using modern molecular biology techniques, different species of commonly used Chinese traditional drugs arc being studied to identify species-specific markers. Application of this information, different genera of these drugs as well as different families and species can be distinguished." - Amarjit S. Basra, Handbook of Medicinal Plants (Get the book.)
"Thus, molecular markers that do not require prior sequence data are preferentially utilized. fingerprinting data is collected and analyzed with a special algorithm that is based on the comparison of the allelic similarities. The genetic variation within and between the samples under study and the genetic distances are estimated. The genetic diversity data assist in the understanding of pedigree and genetic relatedness among species and accessions.

"The methods are based on sequence differences in the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region or the chloroplast ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase large subunit gene and DNA fingerprinting by RAPD.15
Skullcap is the common name for three different Scutellaria medicinal plants: S. galericulata, S. lateriflora, and S. baicalensis. Dried aerial parts of S. galericulata and S. lateriflora arc difficult to distinguish morphologi: cally. Hosokawa et al. utilized RAPD to distinguish between these species. They analyzed 10 primers that produced 92 bands."

Echinacea root (E. purpurea and E. pallida)
Echinacea purpurea and E. pallida are used as immuno-stimulants and in the treatment of respiratory infections. Both species are employed in the preparation of pharmaceutical products and some data on efficacy are available for both. Other species are also used, but there is insufficient information available to validate their use. The active constituents are not known." - Dr. Michael Heinrich, Joanne Barnes, Simon Gibbons and Elizabeth M. Williamson, Fundamentals of Pharmacognosy and Phytotherapy (Get the book.)
"HPLC is a powerful technique for fingerprinting biologically active extracts and comparisons can be drawn with chromatograms and UV spectra stored in an electronic library. This is currently very important for the quality control of herbal medicines for which appropriate standards in reproducibility of extract quality must be met.
HPLC can be run in fully automated mode and with carousel autosamplers it is possible to analyse tens to hundreds of samples."
