Investigation into "normal" background DNA on adult necks: implications for DNA profiling of manual strangulation victims.

Journal of forensic sciences - 1 Sept 2008

Graham Eleanor Alison May, Rutty Guy Nathan

Abstract excerpt

Others have investigated the role that DNA profiling could play as a method for identifying the perpetrator of manual strangulation. These studies have demonstrated that it is possible to collect offender DNA from the skin surface of a victim following physical contact. It is not known whether nonself biological material is normally present on the skin surface due to adventitious transfer occurring during...
