ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To establish a method for extracting genomic DNA from rudimental bird feather from the precious edible bird's nest (EBN) harvested from the swiftlet cave.METHODS:
Observed the EBN using endoscopic and studied the influence of adding collagenase on the extracting yield of DNA. PCR amplification and sequencing for the extraction was also conducted.RESULTS:
Collagenase was used in addition to protease K which could substantively increase the DNA yield. The DNA extracted by this method could be used for PCR and other molecular biology analyses.CONCLUSION:
This method can be applied to identify the species types in biological products, especially for animal tissue materials that rich in collagen.
