FORENSIC DNA ANALYSIS
What is it?
Forensic DNA Analysis is the analysis of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acids) genetic markers as related to a criminal investigation to determine the identity of a perpetrator, victim or other individual(s) involved. Lagos State DNA & Forensic Center operates a state-of-the art DNA analysis laboratory using the latest instrumentation to achieve DNA analysis results. The laboratory looks at twenty-seven genetic markers, including a sex-specific marker determining if the individual is male or female, as well as three male-specific genetic markers. The ultimate goal of forensic DNA analysis is solving the crime and obtaining justice for the victim(s) involved.
Types of tests available
Lagos State DNA & Forensic Center employs a 3500 genetic analyzer capillary electrophoresis instrument with the capability of analyzing 8 DNA samples at a time to produce a DNA short tandem repeat profile. The laboratory performs DNA analysis on evidence as it pertains to a criminal investigation and compares the DNA profile obtained to known reference DNA profiles from victim(s), perpetrator(s), etc.
