Abstract excerpt

A new method was developed for determining the geographical origin of unidentified cadavers by examining the genome of varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which resides latently throughout life in most individuals and the genotypes which show distinct geographical distribution. VZV DNA samples extracted from the trigeminal ganglia of 62 cadavers (59 from Japan, and 1 each from the United Kingdom, Mongolia, and...
