Preservation and rapid purification of DNA from decomposing human tissue samples.

Forensic science international. Genetics - 1 Nov 2016

Abstract excerpt

One of the key features to be considered in a mass disaster is victim identification. However, the recovery and identification of human remains are sometimes complicated by harsh environmental conditions, limited facilities, loss of electricity and lack of refrigeration. If human remains cannot be collected, stored, or identified immediately, bodies decompose and DNA degrades making genotyping more difficult and...
