In crime scene investigation, various evidences are attained in distinct forms by forensic experts. These evidences are often recovered in contaminated form, decomposed or partial form especially skelton remnants. In homicidal cases, dead bodies are redeemed partial burnt/ completely. In such cases, identification of an individual from highly burnt remnants is established by DNA profile. It can’t be neglected that hard tissues (bones and teeth) can bear extreme fire impact and often attained with some partial flesh pieces. Although, a considerable degree of degradation may occur in DNA retrieved from burnt bone pieces. This study is mainly focused upon the extraction and quantification of DNA profile generated from such remnants. Effect of fire on DNA and extreme heat on blood, blood in form of prime source of DNA are believed to be no longer traceable after exposure to a temperature of 1000°C. The outcome of this research will help researchers to quantify DNA profile, identify the deceased person/ dead bodies from such cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
