Abstract: | AnyDirect PCR buffer (BioQuest) permits to perform direct PCR from different kinds of forensic samples (blood, saliva, sperm, etc.) without any DNA purification step.This is very useful in particular when working with small quantity of sample since it avoids the risk of loosing sample step by step as often happens with traditional DNA extraction procedures.In the present casework we analyzed some bloodstains found by luminol test onto washed clothes and linen: all samples were analyzed either using the AmpFlSTRs Identifiler kit (Applied Biosystems). |
