INTRODUCTION

This document is about understanding the technology of DNA Testing . The of DNA is very complicated and not easy to understand , so a very easy to understand language would be used which would help the readers to understand the concept and technology of DNA testing . In easy words DNA is determines the individual characteristics of a person

which identifies and differentiates him from other people on medical basis DNA technology is not new to the human being , it is there since very old times but the scientists have identified and named it quite later after the advancements in the technology

BODY - THE TECHNOLOGY OF DNA TESTING

The discovery of DNA is one of the most fascinating and useful discoveries and events in the world and more importantly , for the twentieth century . Almost everyone among us is aware of this term but most of us are unaware of the importance and the real meaning or concepts of DNA , 1997 , p399

Deoxyribonucleic Acid - DNA

DNA is fundamentally the abbreviation of the term deoxyribonucleic acid which actually is the genetic unique design and blueprint which authenticates and verifies the biological characteristics of a particular individual person . DNA of every person is very unique and different and not every person in the world has the same design however , the genes of a blood family would contain similar designs which determine that they are members of that specific family group . DNA is very small in size and cannot be tested from naked eye . It basically is found in the blood cells of the human body . DNA is present in shape of long strands in the blood cells of human body

Structure of DNA , 1997 , p399 ) DNA is the substance which contains the inheritance influence of bone density , blood cells , stature , and eye color pattern or hair structure . It is said to be human body 's blueprint forever till he lives . The size of DNA could be packed normally into a space which could be equivalent to a cube 1 /millionth of an inch on one side . It is because of the reason that it let the cells to come close and form a cooperative group and form an organism . Our body comprises of many type cells overall there are blood cells , kidney cells , brain cells , liver cells , sperm cells , muscle cells and many more . Each part and organ of our body comprises of billions and trillions of these tiny cells and each cell contains a complete sample or specimen DNA which is very similar to every other cell in the body . But there exists some exceptions , such as , the red cells present in our body contains less amount of DNA because of the fact that blood itself can be categorized because of the DNA present in the white cells...
