The TGA have been caught out lying again. This time in regard to whether or not DNA is in the batches.
As page 6 of FOI 3390-11 shows, there was DNA in the batches. Furthermore because this was encapsulated inside lipids it would definitely got inside the cells.
It’s worth nothing the residual DNA template was done with a qPCR test whereas the RNA concentration was done with UV spectroscopy giving a result of 2.27mg/ml.
On page 3 the RNA content using fluorescence testing showed 0.48mg/ml five times less than the UV test.
Why were different tests used? Was this to fudge the results of DNA contamination?
