Processing challenging forensic casework samples with new protocols for the QIAsymphony SP/AS  M. Scherer, B. Alsdorf, M. Breitbach, K. Matthaei, A. Schnur, N. Scholle, L. Bochmann, A. Prochnow, H. Engel  Forensic Science International: Genetics Supplement Series  Volume 4, Issue 1, Pages e352-e353 (January 2013) DOI: 10.1016/j.fsigss.2013.10.179 Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions

Fig. 1 Comparison of the ADV and standard protocols for DNA extraction from forensic casework samples. DNA yield from a series of saliva (A) and blood (B) dilutions.

Fig. 2 Comparison of DNA yields from low elution volumes with and without the HE protocol (oil overlay). The HE protocol resulted in a higher DNA yield with both 30 and 50μl elution volumes.
