A Study of old Serbian Skeletal Remains using ForenSeq DNA Signature ™ Kit

In this study Illumina ForenSeq™ DNA Signature Prep kit was tested to determine if MPS offers a more comprehensive evaluation of degraded samples than the traditional fragment analysis/capillary electrophoresis based method (Athey, 2006). The use of MPS would therefore reduce the analysis time and augment the identification of human remains. In this context we aimed to analyse the hard tissue degraded samples using ForenSeq™ DNA Signature kit.
