Article Synopsis
- The integration of massively parallel sequencing (MPS) technology has enhanced the identification of unknown military service members, but challenges remain with highly degraded skeletal remains.
- Researchers have adapted ancient DNA extraction methods to successfully recover more human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from disinterred remains from the Korean War and WWII.
- The study highlights that using specific ancient DNA extraction and single-stranded library preparation techniques significantly improves forensic DNA profiling and increases the chances of identifying historical remains.
