Highlights
- •Conventional methods were more successful than Rapid methods for STR typing of compromised bones.
- •Erroneous and false homozygous genotypes were detected among bones run on the ANDE system.
- •Modified rapid analysis was required for genotyping of compromised bones with ANDE and RHID systems.
- •Optimization of bone processing time and quantity on the ANDE system did not improve genotyping success.
