A quantitative method to assess DNA extraction efficiency

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Obtaining an accepted minimum amount of extracted and purified DNA is critical for generating complete forensic short tandem repeat (STR) profiles. Certain sample types encountered in forensic laboratories may pose challenges in obtaining the desired target amount of extracted DNA, which can be compounded when an extraction yields low recovery,

DNA methylation and epigenomic profiling post‐mortem of human remain analogs (Sus scrofa) in southern Ontario, Canada

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the dynamics of DNA methylation (DNAm) post‐mortem could support forensic applications, particularly the estimation of the post‐mortem interval (PMI), age, and sex of remains. In this study, we investigated DNAm changes in pig carcasses (Sus scrofa) as analogs for human decomposition, while measuring the progression of decay ...

LLM‐based keyword augmentation for title‐driven evidence selection: A practical approach

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Keyword‐based search is widely used in digital forensic investigations, yet its effectiveness depends strongly on investigator experience, leading to inconsistent results and missed evidence. While previous studies have explored machine learning and large language models (LLMs) to address this, practical deployment is often constrained by ...

In vitro and in vivo metabolism profiles of cathinone and pseudoephedrine: Discrimination between khat and pseudoephedrine uses

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract In the present study, the metabolism of khat (Catha edulis) and pseudoephedrine was compared with the aim of identifying objective criteria that could be used to discriminate between them for forensic and doping‐control purposes. An in vitro study using human liver microsomes and an in vivo study using rat urine were performed under harmonized
