PCR in forensic genetics.
نویسنده
چکیده
Since the introduction in the mid-1980s of analyses of minisatellites for DNA analyses, a revolution has taken place in forensic genetics. The subsequent invention of the PCR made it possible to develop forensic genetics tools that allow both very informative routine investigations and still more and more advanced, special investigations in cases concerning crime, paternity, relationship, disaster victim identification etc. The present review gives an update on the use of DNA investigations in forensic genetics.

An evidence based strategy for normalization of quantitative PCR data from miRNA expression analysis in forensic organ tissue identification.
Messenger-RNA (mRNA)-based analysis of organ tissues and their differentiation in complex crime stains has recently been introduced as a potential and powerful tool to forensic genetics. Given the notoriously low quality of many forensic samples it seems advisable, though, to substitute mRNA with micro-RNA (miRNA) which is much less susceptible to degradation. However, reliable miRNA detection ...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of two STR loci (VWA and TPOX) in the Iranian province of Khuzestan
Objective(s): Short tandem repeat (STR) loci are the most informative DNA genetic markers for attempting to individualize biological material for application in paternity and forensic cases. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected and the total genomic DNA was extracted. The DNA samples were used for genotyping VWA and TPOX STR loci using PCR and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. ...

Background and Aim: Short tandem repeat (STR) markers, are conserved region in human genome and highly polymorphic between individuals. Nowadays, genotyping of STR marker is widely known and used for the genetic identification of individuals in forensic DNA analyses. Based on allelic frequencies of STR loci varies between populations, investigation of genetically and forensically parameters in ...
متن کاملAutomated extraction of DNA from biological stains on fabric from crime cases. A comparison of a manual and three automated methods.
The presence of PCR inhibitors in extracted DNA may interfere with the subsequent quantification and short tandem repeat (STR) reactions used in forensic genetic DNA typing. DNA extraction from fabric for forensic genetic purposes may be challenging due to the occasional presence of PCR inhibitors that may be co-extracted with the DNA. Using 120 forensic trace evidence samples consisting of var...
متن کاملDirect comparison of post-28-cycle PCR purification and modified capillary electrophoresis methods with the 34-cycle "low copy number" (LCN) method for analysis of trace forensic DNA samples.
The investigation of samples with low amounts of template DNA remains at the forefront of forensic DNA research and technology as it becomes increasingly important to gain DNA profile information from exceedingly trace levels of DNA. Previous studies have demonstrated that it is possible to obtain short tandem repeat (STR) profiles from <100pg of template DNA by increasing the number of amplifi...
