Abstract excerpt
DNA methylation is an important target for crime trace analysis. Amongst others, the combined analysis of tissue-specific differentially methylated DNA positions (tDMP) and person-identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms (iSNP) has demonstrated potential to link known mixture contributors to their respective body fluid. As STRs are the gold standard for individualization, we aimed to implement a pipeline to...
