Hi Andrew,

We are trying it out for basking sharks which involves collecting some of the mucous on the surface of the shark as it swims by. Les Noble at Aberdeen Uni was working on the DNA extraction but not published as yet as far as I know.

best wishes

Hi all,

I recall a presentation at a conference on (I think) DNA sampling through the use of a rough dish cleaning sponge (commonly known as a 'green scrubby') mounted on the end of a pole for collecting loose skin from the body of cetaceans. Does anyone know who was conducting this work and/or if it has been published yet?

Apologies for cross-posting.

Many thanks,

Andrew
