Current forensic DNA analysis predominantly involves identification of human donors by
analysis of short tandem repeats (STRs) using Capillary Electrophoresis (CE). Recent …

DNA analysis of degraded samples and low‐copy number DNA derived from skeletal
remains, one of the most challenging forensic tasks, is common in disaster victim …

Abstract Use of Massive Parallel Sequencing (MPS) techniques has been investigated by
forensic community aiming introduction of such methods in routine forensic casework …

We present results from an inter-laboratory massively parallel sequencing (MPS) study in
the framework of the SeqForSTRs project to evaluate forensically relevant parameters, such …

STR typing in forensic genetics has been performed traditionally using capillary
electrophoresis (CE). However, CE-based method has some limitations: a small number of …

Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has been used to genotype forensic short tandem
repeat (STR) markers for individual identification and kinship analysis. STR data from …

For human identification purposes, forensic genetics has primarily relied upon a core set of
autosomal (and to a lesser extent Y chromosome) short tandem repeat (STR) markers that …

Forensic scientists are currently investigating how to transition from capillary electrophoresis
(CE) to massive parallel sequencing (MPS) for analysis of forensic DNA profiles. MPS offers …

Amplicon (targeted) sequencing by massively parallel sequencing (PCR-MPS) is a potential
method for use in forensic DNA analyses. In this application, PCR-MPS may supplement or …

Abstract A custom GeneRead DNAseq SNP panel with 210 markers was evaluated using
the Ion S5 and MiSeq sequencing platforms. Sensitivity, PCR cycle number, and the use of …
