Abstract

A workflow for direct qPCR quantification of unprocessed forensic casework samples is disclosed herein. 13pg of DNA has been detected by direct amplification from a paper substrate. Direct qPCR quantification of unprocessed forensic casework samples and direct STR amplification of unprocessed forensic casework samples collected on the same PE-swab will greatly increase forensic laboratory's efficiency and capability.
