Forensic biology is a sub-discipline of biological science with an amalgam of other branches
of science used in the criminal justice system. Any nucleated cell/tissue harbouring DNA …

Skeletal remains from archaeological and forensic contexts are commonly used for various
analyses, including DNA. Our research investigates relatively fast and inexpensive ATR …

Studies evaluating DNA preservation in non-adults, or comparing preservation in adults and
non-adults, are very rare. This study compares the preservation of DNA in the skeletal …

DNA yield and STR typing success differ among skeletal element types and within individual
bones. Consequently, it is necessary to identify the skeletal elements and their intra-skeletal …

Over the last few years, palaeogenomic studies of the petrous bone (the densest part of the
temporal bone) have shown that it is a source of DNA in both larger quantities and of better …

The killings during the Second World War, with nearly one hundred thousand victims, is one
of the greatest losses of life in Slovenia's modern history. This article presents the genetic …

In forensic kinship analysis and human identification cases, analysis of STRs is the gold
standard. When badly preserved ancient DNA is used for kinship analysis, short identity …

An efficient extraction method is important for obtaining high-quality DNA from degraded
aged bone samples. An automated full-demineralization method using the EDTA and DNA …

DNA sampling and typing are used for identifying missing persons or war victims. In recent
forensic studies, little focus has been placed on determining intra-bone variability within a …

ATR-FTIR spectroscopy is a fast and accessible, minimally or non-destructive technique
which provides information on physiochemical characteristics of analyzed materials. In …
