Abstract excerpt
The analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) together with conventional short tandem repeat (STR) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) typing provide a forensic genetic approach for the identification of pathological and autoptical specimens in cases where the average length of DNA fragments is shorter than 150 bp in highly degraded samples. We applied a forensic genetic approach to digesta accidentally left...
