Get comparable profiles from guns and other gun-related evidence.
Recovering DNA from gun evidence is often challenging due to mixed profiles, and yet we’ve seen that the majority of cases will plea out if DNA evidence is present. DNA from firearm evidence consistently yields high levels of DNA, and our methods produce comparable results in over 90% of cases.
Over 90% Results
STRmix is integral in achieving these high results, with the ability to deconvolute up to five person mixtures. With our unmatched combination of technology and experience, we are the only private lab positioned to help you achieve the best possible results.
ACHIEVE DNA RESULTS when swabbing guns
The best way to achieve results is by swabbing separately:
- Front/Rear Sights
- Trigger/Guard
- Frame/Slide/Grip
- Magazine/Cartridge
Do not swab the bottom exterior of the magazine
- Live Rounds
Do not swab the bottom exterior magazine cartridge with the interior of the magazine. To keep the DNA that is found on the exterior from coming in contact with the interior of the magazine.
