  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE DECONVOLUTION OF MIXED DNA PROFILES USING A PROPORTIONATELY SHARED ALLELE APPROACH
    Publication number: 20090270264
    Abstract: A total forensic DNA casework management system and method for the deconvolution of mixed DNA samples using a novel, 3-rule algorithm to determine the proportional allele sharing of the sample's contributors. The process is fully document, can assess and process DNA anomalies and artifacts, and transforms raw STR data to produce final DNA profile types, peak height ratios, proportions, fitting criteria and associated graphs.
