Article Synopsis
- DNA identification mainly uses short tandem repeat (STR) genotyping but traditional methods have low throughput and lack sequence information.
- High-throughput sequencing technology holds potential for better accuracy in human identification but is not yet validated for forensic use.
- This study outlines a method using high-throughput sequencing to analyze CODIS STR loci, showing it can accurately genotype individuals and mixtures, requiring only 18,500 reads for reliable results while also identifying SNPs and quantifying mixed samples.
