Comparison of three DNA extraction methods from raw cow's milk sample

The progress and advancement in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extraction has greatly evolved since it was initally performed in year 1986. DNA extraction has always be the first step required prior to any DNA analysis. In this study, raw cow’s milk has been subjected to three different extraction m...
