While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means ...

A 2015 report published by a private genomics testing company found that 2% of 345 hot dogs tested contained traces of human DNA. However, it was unclear whether that report was a peer-reviewed ...

Of course, though, testing a child's parentage based on physical features is far too subjective — that's typically where DNA tests come in. Such tests can offer a far more scientific way of ...
