From DNA to identification
When human identification matters, Verogen offers the technology that generates powerful investigative intelligence from a DNA sample. Forensic genetic genealogy (FGG), mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), short tandem repeats (STRs), and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can work together to solve cold cases, identify missing persons, or exonerate and convict—a portfolio of capabilities exclusive to the Verogen MiSeq FGx® Forensic Genomics Solution.
New DNA techniques in modern human identification
In this new eBook, we present a guide to the latest in next-generation sequencing (NGS) to decipher highly discriminating forensic data.
Download this free guide to find out how modern forensic genomics can be used to solve more crimes using the latest systems and software, obtain more data from damaged or degraded DNA and help generate accurate leads to capture the guilty, exonerate the innocent, and reopen cold cases.
This eBook features:
- The use of modern forensic genomics to solve more crimes
- How to obtain data from severely degraded nuclear DNA
- The process from damaged DNA to human identification
- Genetic genealogy as a forensic tool
- Other useful resources
Forensic genetic genealogy with GEDmatch
In this application note, Verogen describes how forensic genetic genealogy uses DNA data and the Verogen GEDmatch database to generate the genetic intelligence that can lead to an identification. This method also presents real-world examples of FGG results, linking perpetrators to crimes and exonerating the wrongly convicted with equal levels of assuredness.
How next generation sequencing resolved a difficult case, leading to the first criminal conviction of its kind
In one recent case, Peter de Knijff and the forensic laboratory staff at Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC), used MPS to decipher highly discriminating data from a challenging mixed sample in a sexual assault case, which ultimately led to the first and only criminal conviction based on MPS data to be reported globally to date. Verogen spoke with Dr. de Knijff recently regarding this interesting case, and its potential ramifications for MPS utilization moving forward.
Massively parallel sequencing workflow for severely degraded nuclear DNA
In this application note, Verogen demonstrates the combined extraction method of DFK extraction, InnoQuant HY quantification and MiSeq FGx Forensic Genomics System and how this method provides a robust workflow capable of achieving successful nuclear DNA results from challenging, low-level and degraded samples.
