Rate limiting factors for DNA transduction induced by weak electromagnetic field.
Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine 2018 December 21
DNA transduction across aqueous solutions has been reported previously. In this study, we examined a few key factors affecting DNA transduction rate in an extremely low frequency electromagnetic field. These include: the chemical composition of the aqueous solutions, the type of experimental vessel, the dilution step, and the origin of the DNA fragments. The results indicate that partially introducing essential ingredients for DNA amplification (i.e. dNTPs and PCR buffer) to the aqueous solution enhanced the transduction rate greatly, and transduction vessels made of hydrophilic quartz yielded more favorable results than vessels made of hydrophobic plastic. In addition, performing a serial dilution to the transduction solution more than doubled the transduction rate compared to that without the dilution step. For the DNA fragments used in this study, there was one with a pathogenic origin and two with non-pathogenic origins. However, all three fragments achieved DNA transduction regardless of the difference in their origins. The experimental setup for eliminating the false positives caused by both biological and potentially physical contamination is also described.
