Evaluation and SNP typing of DNA from ultraviolet-irradiated human bloodstains using TaqMan assay

Abstract When detecting DNA profiles from forensic materials, it is pivotal to know the extent of degradation and which DNA marker can be genotyped. Ultraviolet (UV) is one of the common external factors that causes DNA damage, through which, an attempt to reveal cardinal genetic information can be...
