has anyone used any other method for extracting dna samples from liquid environmental samples other than filters ?
how about soil?

What are you interested in looking at? Bacteria, eukaryotes, viruses, total? There are other methods for concentrating cells (differential centrifugation, tangential flow etc.) but it depends on what you're looking for and the volumes you're dealing with.
With soil there are a million different extraction procedures in the literature, many good and bad, but need a bit more detail to help

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...Yesterday, 07:01 AM -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
