I am working on Fungal strains to determine its DNA lesions under UV treatment.
I wonder if anyone working with CPD and 6-4PPs quantification (ELISA) before, and any method to store the fungal sample after UV treatment for later extraction? will that affect the DNA lesions quantification after (e.g lesions degraded or reduced after storage ). And how long extracted DNA (contained DNA lesion can be stored, which the CPDs and 6-4PPs numbers do not change after) can be stored?
