The low template DNA profiling controversy
This article describes disputes that have arisen around forms of forensic DNA profiling technologies known as 'low-template DNA' methods. These ultra-sensitive techniques, used to analyse trace quantities of DNA, have previously been used in many high-profile criminal cases. However, certain cases have stimulated renewed debate within forensic scientific communities concerning the reliability and validity of low-template DNA. The low-template DNA…
