Matthew Collins3️⃣ Method involves minimally destructive sampling - a huge advantage over traditional approaches. The technique extracted and identified sex-linked peptides from third molars with surprising consistency. #palaeoproteomics #archaeologicalscience
A 'why did I not think of that moment?' 🤔
Planetary EcologistArchaeoparasitology (Parasitology 🧬)
Archaeoparasitology, a multi-disciplinary field within paleopathology, is the study of parasites in archaeological contexts. It includes studies of the protozoan and metazoan parasites of humans in the past, as well as parasites which may have affected past human societies, such as those infesting domesticated animals. Reinhard suggested that the ...
6️⃣ The neutralised acid extracts remained stable for 4 weeks in LoBind tubes - practical detail but important for fieldwork applications where immediate analysis isn't possible. #archaeologicalscience
