In this paper, four different applications are presented in forensic epigenetics using bisulfite modified PCR, HRM, and pyrosequencing.
The first application involves the development of a multiplex amplification capable of simultaneous analysis of four different body fluid/cell types- blood, saliva, sperm, and vaginal epithelia. The authors have also developed a method for the detection of sperm high-resolution melt analysis (HRM). Two other applications involve a determination of suspect age and a biomarker for determining smoking status. (publisher abstract modified)
