Abstract

Since January 1999, the Forensic Science Service has routinely carried out low copy number (LCN) DNA profiling in casework. To support this initiative, research has been carried out to discover the characteristics and limitations of LCN DNA by studying a series of well-defined evidence types, such as latent fingermarks, and by measuring the propensity of donors to deposit DNA onto objects that they have touched.
