Welcome to Conservation and Biodiversity at Unitec - Te Pukenga!
Here, we show the research activities from the School of Environmental and Animal Sciences. We profile our Level 7 (Stage 3) students on their research work in the Bachelor of Applied Sciences and Master of Applied Sciences (Biodiversity Management). We also like to post interesting information on wildlife biodiversity and basic techniques/ approaches in ecology that we teach at EAS.

Hello, I am Rhoda Msosa from Malawi and I hold a Bachelor's degree in Biodiversity Conservation and Management (hons) under the Biological Sciences Department at Mzuzu University... I am interested in this masters program and possible scholarship opportunities you offer for African / Non EU students.

Girl u are saved my life ❤
"This coffee smells like shit! But it tastes GREAT!"
What the!
I can't find the fruit nutritional benefits as of yet??
thank u very muchhhh!!! ❤ from Chile 🇨🇱
thank you, that is absolutely great
What is this human dna used for after it has been extracted?
mostly for HLA typing so that a potential stem cell recipient with a rare disease can get the stem cells of the person who got buccal swabbed if matched - which saves the recipient's life from that rare disease.
Thank you so much. Your video helped a lot!!
Thank you for the video!
Sir, I am isolating plant dna from leaf sample and getting smear in it... Even after RNase treatment and purification of the DNA. Could you please provide suggestions regarding the removal the smear... Thank you in advance 🙏
Thank you for this! Iʻm learning about Native Hawaiian plants so this is perfect to help me 🙏🏽💗
Tnx for the video
Needed this video for my exams,thanks
Could this method also be used for fungal DNA extraction?
Yes, it can. However, an animal tissue extraction method would also be effective for fungi.
is the pallete that comes is of white colour? and nearly how much DNA we will get?
Hi, the palette is usually white. However, sometimes the palette retains some colour from the original sample material. This usually happens when a large amount of fresh material is used or when the cells contain a lot of pigment. According to the manufacturer, Qiagen, 3-30ug of DNA is typical. However, my experience is that it is often greater. The yield for the technique varies a lot and may depend on the genome size of the plant you are working with. If you need a higher yield, you can increase the concentration of the DNA in the final elution by decreasing the volume of elution buffer you use. (I'm sorry for the very late reply! I did not see your comment until now!)
@@unitecEAS-biodiversity thanks for your reply. But I want to tell u Inhave used this method several times but I didn’t got dna ever!😓😓😓 I tried it the way u have told in the video but unfortunately I never ever got it
@@unitecEAS-biodiversity also plz let me know can I extract DNA from fungus using this kit ? As I have read this in many papers.. my fungus is Nosema spores residing in honey bee abdomen. I need to extract DNA of that
@@SaumyaSharma123 Yes, we routinely use the Plant Minikit for fungal DNA extraction. A few standard questions: Have you confirmed that the bee abdomen you are extracting from do contain the spores? Are you able to pool your samples during extraction to increase chances of obtaining DNA? I assume that you have seen the paper Ingemar et al 2013 Standard methods for Nosema research (doi.org/10.3896/IBRA.1.52.1.14)? The paper shows a few additional steps in the Nosema DNA extraction protocol before using the Plant Minikit.
@@SaumyaSharma123 yes I have extract the DNA from fungul with ths kit
Brilliant - we have both on our property and I still have trouble telling them apart. Thanks for the tips!
