- atemerev 3y agoYou know, you can send other peoples DNA to sequencing services too…
- micromacrofoot 3y agoNanpore sequencing can be done with a device that can fit into your pocket, these devices can be found for less than $1000.
- boringuser2 3y agoWhy do you care again? It's DNA, not your BitWarden password.
- dekhn 3y agoNo; this is factually wrong.
- eimrine 3y agoAnd not even a bit of clarifying? If you can convert the DNA sample into two DNA copies without destroying the sample, probably you are a God.
- dekhn 3y agoYou said "The DNA we are leaking is impossible to copy unlike the DNA we are sending to 23andme." I said it was wrong because if people collect environmental human DNA samples and "copy" them (amplify with PCR). Not sure what you mean about destroying the sample- you typically take part of the sample and amplify it without destroying the whole thing. I'm just unsure of what you are trying to say here; I'm responding with purely factual answers based on modern DNA technology.
