Abstract excerpt
The most common cause of problems associated with analyzing DNA extracted from forensic samples is their high level of degradation. Such difficulties are caused by the fact that STR markers have too large amplicon sizes to be amplified in degraded DNA samples. Thus, it is necessary to employ more efficient markers for analyzing evidential samples. SNPs are ideal tools for such purposes, for the SNP genotyping...
