Introducing the Applied Biosystems TM Precision ID NGS System for Human Identification Sheri J. Olson Director, Product Management Casework Human Identification
Current challenges for forensic scientists Difficult mixture interpretations Partial or no profiles from highly degraded or trace samples No STR profile matches in DNA database Unknown tissue/ body fluid origin Complex kinship cases and/or familial searches Laborious sequencing of mtdna by CE 2
NGS is a KEY to getting more information for forensics Sequencing allows greater depth of genetic information Multiplexing hundreds of the same markers i.e. SNPs Multiplex different types of markers: SNP+ STR Simultaneously analyze multiple samples (barcoding) Target small amplicons to recover DNA with challenging samples Massively Parallel Sequencing 3
Forensic customers needs for NGS Low input validated workflows Easy sequencing workflow for a forensic lab I don t want to have to remap my entire lab workflow Data storage solutions for cloud & non-cloud labs Easy to use and interpret data analysis Forensically relevant content for my region 4
Future of Forensics: CE + NGS = Integrated forensics workflow 50-70% of Casework STR by CE Analysis GMID-X DNA Extraction Quantification By qpcr Converge Platform Mixtures Degraded Investigative leads Precision ID NGS System Brings CE + NGS data together NGS will not displace CE for the foreseeable future Position NGS for difficult samples Integrate NGS into current workflow Create integrated NGS workflow 5
