摘要：

A method for detection an identification of mammalian DNA in the gut of alcohol-preserved ticks has been developed. Successful amplification and sequencing of host cytochrome b is reported from ticks preserved in 70% alcohol for more than 40 yr. The method described shows promise for determination of unknown tick hosts.
