Nucleix Presents DNA Authentication Technology at 20th International Symposium on Human Identification
Date:10/14/2009

ion technology with the current standard DNA profiling procedure, thus maintaining the integrity of DNA evidence without a significant increase in expensive resources such as labor and materials. The company's DNA authentication assay requires a minimal amount of DNA, makes use of equipment that is present in every forensic laboratory, and can be performed with profiling, thereby maintaining the current timeframe for sample analysis. In addition, profiling and authentication data can be combined into a single file, which is then analyzed by Nucleix's software, further reducing the complexity of integrating DNA profiling and authentication.

"We are pleased to have the opportunity to present our breakthrough DNA authentication technology to peers in the forensics field," said Drs. Wasserstrom and Frumkin. "Our goal is to provide an innovative Nucleix solution for ensuring DNA authentication that would enable rapid integration into current forensic analysis technology and workflow. This integration is necessary in order to maintain the high credibility of DNA evidence in the judiciary system."

About Nucleix

Nucleix, an emerging life science company specializing in forensic DNA analysis, has developed a "DNA authentication" assay for forensic casework samples with potential applications across multiple DNA analysis and validation fields. DNA fingerprinting has been established as one of the most important forensic tools in criminal investigations. Nucleix scientists have demonstrated the viability of creating artificial DNA and "biological identify theft."(1) Using basic equipment and know-how, DNA with any desired profile can be fabricated in the lab, and this artificial DNA can then be planted in crime scenes as fake evidence. Until recently, there has been no way to distinguish between genetic profiles obtained from falsified DNA samples, which can appear identical to real biological profiles based on current ana
