Forensic genetic genealogy with GEDmatch
27 Apr 2020In this application note, Verogen describes how forensic genetic genealogy uses DNA data and the Verogen GEDmatch database to generate the genetic intelligence that can lead to an identification. This method also presents real-world examples of FGG results, linking perpetrators to crimes and exonerating the wrongly convicted with equal levels of assuredness.

DNA SequencingDNA sequencing, such as sanger sequencing, is a biological technique that determines the precise order of nucleotide bases in a fragment or template of DNA. DNA sequencers and genetic analyzers are based on capillary electrophoresis, where labeled DNA fragments are electrophoretically separated by size as they migrate through a polymer.
