DNA Traces on the Shroud of Turin: Metagenomics of the 1978 Official Sample Collection

2026-03-22

Abstract excerpt

This research provides original insights into the diversity of DNA extracted from samples collected in 1978 from the Turin Shroud, revealing its biological complexity through rigorous DNA and metagenomic analyses. Our findings highlight its preservation conditions and environmental interactions, offering valuable perspectives into the identified genetic variants, which originated from multiple biological sources....
