DNA 2010; International Conference on DNA Fingerprinting in Crime Investigation- A pioneering event in the History of Forensic Science

The 2-day conference, “DNA 2010- The Science of DNA Fingerprinting in Crime Investigation” from 29th October to 30th October, 2010 at IETE Auditorium, Osmania University, Hyderabad was organized by ioAxis DNA Research Centre, Tarnaka, Secunderabad. BioAxis DNA Research centre operates from Hyderabad and has alaboratory at Gomati nagar in Lucknow. The conference opened traditionally with lighting the lamp by the dignitaries present at the function. Prominent personalities present at the inauguration were Dr. Lalji Singh, former director of CCMB and Bhatnagar Fellow 2009, Dr Amit Kumar CEO, BioAxis DNA Research Centre, Mr. O.N.Murty, Director, APFSL, Dr. Pradeep Srivastav (CDRI), Dr. G.K. Goswami (IPS,Lucknow), Mr. Rahul Patel (Bode Tech, USA) and others. Dr. Shakuntala Bulusu (Research Head, BDRC) welcomed the guests and Dr. Sabiha Khan (Conference Secretary, BDRC) spoke about the events that lead to the organization of the conference. Dr. Amit Kumar, Director and CEO, BDRC spoke about the need for DNA forensics in crime and explained how DNA gained recognition as clinching and decisive evidence. On a global scale, the availability of this technique and its refinement to a stage where it would become foolproof could act as a deterrent to certain kinds of crimes, he said. At the end he expressed a strong wish that his organization, the BioAxis DNA Research Centre will work on its mission towards making this science useful to common man and bring about awareness in the society for its responsible use. Dr. Lalji Singh acted as Chief Guest of the inaugural and delivered a Keynote address on “Genetic diversity in Indian populations and its health implications”. In his lecture he highlighted the genetic variability across the Indian subcontinent and also explained that many groups in modern India descend from a small number of founding individuals, which have since been genetically isolated from other groups for thousands of years, the fact which has medical implications for Indian populations. He also spoke briefly about his brainchild, the Genome Foundation, and explained its activities. The event was the second conference of the DNA series organized by BioAxis DNA Research Centre, following the great success of DNA2009 and attracted the audience not only from India but also from USA, Iran, and Dubai etc. In all, 61 DSPs and 25 Senior Inspectors of police from Andhra Pradesh Police Department attended this conference, in addition to over 120 student participants from various academic institutions. Eminent speakers from the field of forensics delivered their interesting lectures on the first day of the conference. Dr Pradeep Kumar Srivastav (Central Drug Research Institute, Lucknow) spoke on “DNA and crime investigation- are we ready to face the challenge?” In his lecture he discussed about using SCIENTOONS, a novel concept in science communication for DNA fingerprinting technique, the methodology involved and its future prospects in an interesting manner. Mr.Rahul Patel (Bode Tech, USA) spoke on “Development of an Automated and Reliable System for the Collection, Processing, and Archiving of Buccal DNA Reference Samples for a DNA Database”. In his talk he evaluated and compared products currently available to streamline these procedures and made recommendations on important criteria for the selection of a Buccal DNA Collection system. Mrs. .Sharda Avadhanam Deputy Director, Forensic Science, AP Police Academy, gave an interesting lecture on “Different exhibits encountered in scene of offence-the value of DNA evidence” and how DNA evidence in the form of saliva, blood, skin tissue, hair, and semen are often recovered from crime scenes and can be crucial to the investigation of sexual assaults and other violent crimes. The program ended on the first day with an informative lecture by Dr.Madhusudan Reddy (Staff Scientist and Group Head, Center for DNA Fingerprinting and Diagnostics, Hyderabad) who spoke on “DNA profiling- based disaster victim identification in India”. He explained how proper identification of dead bodies and assigning of the mortal remains to their relatives can be accomplished by comparing the DNA profiles of the body parts or skeletal remains with those of reference or relatives’ samples. Several posters were displayed on the same day by enthusiastic participants on various themes related to DNA Forensics which were judged by experts for awards to be given on the concluding day.

Following the great success of the first day, BioAxis DNA Research Centre, Hyderabad moved on to the second and final day of the conference. The second day was loaded with equally educative and exciting lectures exploring DNA Fingerprinting to its depth with the enlightening lectures by Dr.Sunil Verma, Dr. G.V. Jagadamba, Dr. G.K. Goswami and Dr. Thangraj, on various relevant topics. Dr Sunil Verma, Scientist, CCMB in his talk titled “From Sequences to the Science for Justice and More” explained how wildlife crime detection depends on successful identification of the species and elaborated on the molecular tools that his team developed to identify an organism from a biological sample of an unknown animal origin which helps in judging the severity of wildlife crime by the Wildlife law enforcement agencies and the judiciaries. Looking at the interest of Audience the history was created by establishing a new Wildlife foundation, many attendees donated for the noble cause of conserving wild Life Animals. Dr PK Sruvastava donated the first donation for the foundation. BioAxis DNA Research centre also donated in the foundation.

As per Mr Anukul Mishra- Manager Operations, this programme is unique of its kind and all the projects completed under this programme will be published in peer reviewed National and International journals. As per the training division BDRC more than 3000 trainees have undergone trainings/projects with BDRC as yet but most of the students pursuing Biotechnology and other advance life science subjects in our country are not well exposed to the quality Research skills. They don’t have proper knowledge what a Publication/Patent is? What is its importance? As a result when students complete studies and come into the market searching for jobs they find themselves nowhere. The companies don’t call them for interviews, even if they reach interview most of them fail to crack it. In present Biotechnology market scenario if one wants to get good job in this field, they have to have good publications to their credit to prove their research ability along with the educational eligibility.


Open Source Project Publication Programme (OSPPP) is an initiative in the direction to provide hardcore training on current Research skills required by different life science organizations and companies. The maximum of 75 people will be selected for this programme after the evaluation of their Research Proposals.

BDRC Starts GENETIC COMPATIBILITY DNA TEST For Couples; Useful Science To Stop increasing Divorces

Are you planning to marry and confused whom to choose? Do you want to know the percentage compatibility of yours to your male/female counterpart? Are you eager to know that what are the chances for successful pregnancy if you marry a specific girl? Are you worried thinking about understanding problems with your male/female counterpart after marriage? Now you can know the answer of all these questions by undergoing a genetic compatibility DNA test with BioAxis DNA Research Centre private limited, which gives you the scientific and reliable results. BDRC is one of the largest private and legal DNA Testing providers in the country and this is another major boon by Biotechnology Research to the general Human being. At the launch of this test the company sources pointed that BDRC has always aimed to bring science to every common man so that one can utilize it in general day to day life and get the benefits, this is one of the big steps towards that. Company promises that DNA testing for genetic compatibility will increase the number of successful marriages in India. It is quite an evident fact proved by several biological experiments and publications that biologically compatible couples have lower chances of miscarriage in the generally vulnerable first trimester of the pregnancy. You must have listen people talking “they share good chemistry”, This test is capable of reporting the level of attraction, symmetry of attraction, chances of successful pregnancy and many other compatibility issues between a couple. Biological Research has also shown that fertility rates in genetic compatible couples result in healthier children and successful understanding throughout the life. Present era is technology driven and people now a day crosscheck many things before they really plan to marry. The company recommends that every marriage agencies and related organization to suggest genetic compatibility test before marriages; it will increase the number of pleasant and successful marriages. Not only the agencies but the company is keen to organize awareness camps in various places to make the awareness about the Compatibility DNA Testing and its necessity. This test can be ordered online and the sample required is Cheek cells collected by a standard buccal swab which will be provided by BDRC at a nominal cost of INR250. The cost of this test will be INR15000 in India and it will be available from the May14th 2010 at all the branches of BDRC in India. As per the company sources they plan to do this DNA Test at INR12000/- for the first 50 couples. In most of the divorces these days the root cause is lack of proper understanding between the couples, which prolongs and gives rise to number of physical and emotional offsets where the compatibility between the couples seem lacking and finally the couples end in separating. If science is applied along with the stars and moons to calculate the compatibility between two people, the chances of a successful relation or marriage will be too high. Every one of us will agree that Marriage is one of the biggest decisions in life and divorce or separating after marriage is much better than we don’t marry or we don’t continue a relation with one who is not compatible. BDRC aims to bring down the number of divorces which has increased enormously these days because of the compatibility issues between two persons. To order this test one can visit the website http://www.dnares.in/ or email us at services@dnares.in

Abstract

With increasing activity of genome sequencing of other organisms, biological data and DNA sequence data in particular, is accumulating with phenomenal rate. In order to exploit the wealth of sequence information and other biological data, a scientific discipline – known as ‘bioinformatics’ – has arisen that fuses biology with mathematics and computer science. How do we access, retrieve and analyze this information? How do we give a biological meaning to it ? Complexity, redundancy management, integration and interpretation of such a large volume of data are some of the challenging issues, which scientists are facing today. To find a gene within a genomic sequence is a massive task. Protein coding regions existing in vast sequence information have to be located and assigned a function. Functions of most of the proteins are determined by their three-dimensional structure. Therefore, the prediction of 3-D structure of a protein is crucial for the understanding of its function. The functional genomics which will ultimately be helpful in understanding how the organism functions and survives, are some of the areas where bioinformatics is contributing significantly.. Rational design or modification of proteins for new, hitherto unknown functions is going to be probably the greatest challenge for bioinformatics in next millennium. The background of these areas will be reviewed and the present status including the changing face of bioinformatics will be discussed.
