Część pierwsza: Kopalne DNA – historia odkryć, perspektywy i problemy AB - Museology: modern technologies in service of history Part 1: Ancient DNA – the history of discoveries, new perspectives, and problems For centuries, humankind has been fascinated by the possibilities of exploring the past. People search for answers to significant questions regarding evolution, the origin of species and pathogens, and so on. Using advanced methods, museum institutions have created an opportunity to study major specimens from the past, bringing us closer to understanding these fundamental issues. Until the 1980s, studying objects from museums’ collections, concerning human, plant or animal evolutionary development, were conducted using methods based on anatomical or morphological findings. However, the results were often inaccurate and of solely theoretical value. The use of genetic methods including DNA analysis of museum objects has brought new perspectives for historians, archaeologist, anthropologists, and zoologists.   VL - Volume 25 (2018) IS - Volume 25 PY - 2018 SN - 0239-9989 C1 - 2084-3852 SP - 93 EP - 99 DO - 10.4467/20843852.OM.17.008.9605 UR - https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/opuscula-musealia/artykul/muzealnictwo-nowoczesne-technologie-w-sluzbie-historii-czesc-pierwsza-kopalne-dna-historia-odkryc-perspektywy-i-problemy KW - DNA KW - aDNA KW - izolacja DNA ; DNA KW - DNA isolation
