Abstract
An example of degrading amplified nucleic acids includes expelling a nucleic acid degradation reagent from a reagent chamber in a nucleic acid testing device by actuating the reagent chamber, and expelling an amplified nucleic acid from an amplification chamber of the nucleic acid testing device. The method further includes mixing the amplified nucleic acid and the nucleic acid degradation reagent in a channel of the nucleic acid testing device, and collecting the mixed amplified nucleic acid and nucleic acid degradation reagent in a waste chamber of the nucleic acid testing device.IPC Classes ?
