Forensic DNA casework principally relies on the analysis of short tandem repeats
(STRs) from nuclear DNA (nDNA). In cases where nDNA may not be suitable for
analysis (i.e., highly degraded DNA or DNA present in quantities too low to obtain an
STR ... |

When challenged by difficult biological samples, the forensic analyst is far more likely to
obtain useful data by sequencing the human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Nextgeneration
sequencing (NGS) technologies are currently being evaluated by the F... |
