Bone Marrow transplant transforms a man to chimera with two DNA in Nevada, USA: A Nevada man had a bone marrow transplant to treat acute myeloid leukemia transformed into a chimera with two DNAs. After a few years, he found by swab tests that his DNA is that of his German donor who he has never met until now.
It is not all, to another DNA shock, even his sperms contained the DNA of the German donor. The implication of this case was presented in the international forensic science conference in September, and many DNA analysts showed much interest in it. This new finding will sure affect the future of forensic science.
Chris Long works in the Washoe County Sheriff's Department in Nevada as an IT staff. But his semen now belongs to a German donor who is more than 5,000 miles away and whom he had not even met so far. Now he is being said to be used as a guinea pig for forensic testing by the Sheriff's forensic lab office colleagues.
