At ADR our expertise covers all currently used Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) based DNA identification systems. We have reviewed casework utilizing DQ-alpha, PM (Polymarker) and STR (Short Tandem Repeat) loci characterization.

One of the newest forms of DNA analysis being utilized in the arena of Forensic DNA Identification is Mitochondrial DNA Sequence Analysis (mtDNA). Because mtDNA testing is in its infancy, and involves a considerably more complicated form of analysis, thorough review of casework involving this form of testing is even more critical. At ADR we have the knowledge and resources required to properly examine the use of mtDNA in your case.
