Analysis of bone remains

The process of genetic analysis from bone remains is highly specialized, involving the extraction of valuable information from often old and degraded samples. Our bone remains analysis service utilizes advanced techniques to extract, purify, and analyze the genetic material present in the bones, allowing for identification and kinship studies.

Obtaining genetic material from bones is possible because DNA is a highly stable molecule that can be preserved for a long time.

The next-generation sequencing (NGS) used in our laboratory not only allows us to obtain the genetic profile of the studied bone samples used for kinship studies, but also provides information such as the physical characteristics (phenotype), gender, and biogeographic ancestry of the individuals from whom they originate.
