Assessing the performance of multi-InDel panels for human identification among admixed Brazilians.

Insertion/deletion polymorphisms, or InDels, are widely present in the human genome. They have been considered as potential markers for forensic analysis because they can be genotyped using the CE platform and compatible typing techniques used in forensic laboratories. Additionally, InDels have lower mutation rates and often short amplicon sizes, making them ideal for detecting degraded samples.
