Sometimes, traditional STR profiling doesn’t enable a match with a suspect or database when performing applications including disaster victim identification and crime intelligence. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) or massively parallel sequencing (MPS) offers the opportunity to gain greater knowledge from forensic samples – particularly when sequencing microhaplotype loci – to inform investigations and create new leads.
Our dedicated range of NGS panels provides investigative leads and other vital information when STRs don’t yield the information you need. QIAseq NGS chemistry for human identity analysis includes Unique Molecular Indices that allow you to track every molecule in the PCR and help you to avoid PCR and sequencing errors.
