The efficiency of reduced volume PCR amplification was studied using the VeriFiler™
Express PCR Amplification Kit. Full (25 μL) and reduced (5 μL) volumes were tested in …

DNA typing of latent fingerprints is highly desirable to increase chances of individualization.
We recovered DNA from Cyanoacrylate (CA) fumed fingerprints and used both GlobalFiler™ …

Body fluids provide key pieces of information for a forensic investigation. However,
sometimes only a small amount of body fluids is found and/or DNA are also degraded by …

Conventional DNA profiling typically involves five steps: DNA extraction, quantification,
amplification, capillary electrophoresis and analysis. The multiple sample processing steps …

Background DNA profiling has proven to be a valuable technique for identification of
