Thunder Bay. Ontario – DNA, what is it, why it’s important and why you need to know about it?

DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). Human DNA consists of about 3 billion bases, and more than 99 percent of those bases are the same in all people. The order, or sequence, of these bases determines the information available for building and maintaining an organism, similar to the way in which letters of the alphabet appear in a certain order to form words and sentences. In such a way everyone’s story is written differently.

DNA Memorial is a DNA services company which has developed a method to bind DNA to a substrate so it can be incorporated into products without compromising the information it contains. The DNA then can be added to paints for DNA portraits, into keepsakes and even encapsulated in to a small tree seedling offered as a living memorial. DNA Memorial only deals with regulated funeral service or hospice programs and not directly with the general public. The death care sector is the logical place for this service to be offered because no one likes to thinks about a loved one passing away. Therefore in the vast majority of cases no one has even thought about saving their family’s DNA. The funeral or palliative care partners are the last chance to save this invaluable information that someone’s DNA holds. They are very sensitive to family concerns and very tactful in their approach of the subject.

DNA Memorial has launched its environmentally friendly living memorial. A person or even a pets DNA can be placed into a small tree seedling. As the tree grows the DNA is incorporated into the heartwood. Unlike other DNA Memorial products this DNA although still viable would be impractical to extract as the tree grows.
