Abstract excerpt
Microhaplotypes (MHs) have great potential in multiple forensic applications and have proven to be promising markers in complex DNA mixture analysis. In this study, we developed a multiplex panel of 40 highly polymorphic MHs for the Chinese Han population, evaluated its forensic values, and explored its application in predicting the number of contributors (NOCs) in DNA mixtures. The panel consisted of 20 newly...
