[A reviewing for profiling of highly degraded remains]
Abstract
It's always a challenge to type from highly degraded biological remains. PCR-based STR genotyping is helpful and valuable for such degraded samples like bones, teeth et al, but the typing results are sometimes unstable or wrong. Here the methods for solving the problems and improving reproducibility are reviewed.
