THE COMPLETE PICTURE
A workflow built around the application.
Casework brings together different sample substrates, DNA quantities and interpretation questions. Start with the sample and the analytical objective, then select extraction, quantification and STR analysis products as a connected system.
- Collect and extract DNA
- Assess DNA before amplification
- Connect STR analysis and interpretation

Capillary electrophoresis
SeqStudio Flex Series Genetic Analyzers for Human Identification
Flexible capillary electrophoresis for forensic STR analysis, with 8- and 24-capillary configurations.
Analysis software
GeneMapper ID-X Software
STR data analysis and profile review with quality flags, multi-user project management and mixture-assessment tools.
BEFORE YOU SPECIFY
Make the important connections.
Start with the sample
Sample substrate and extraction requirements determine the preparation pathway. A single collection or extraction format is not a substitute for a sample-specific choice.
Specify the complete system
Include the instrument, kit, compatible consumables and software in your selection so the connections between stages can be reviewed.
Plan for interpretation
STR data analysis and interpretation depend on the laboratory’s validated methods, software configuration and case requirements.
