Methylation-Specific Differentiation of Vaginal Epithelial Cells for Forensic Tissue Typing by Bisulfite Conversion and Pyrosequencing
<p>The identification of bodily fluids and tissues is often applied to criminal investigations to clarify events that may or may not have taken place. Current forensic techniques can identify blood, saliva, seminal fluid, and spermatozoa, but there is a clear absence of reliable testing to identify …

DNA Methylation Analysis for Tissue and Age Determination for Forensic Human Identification
… current forensic techniques to identify relevant tissues, but tissue specific methylation markers are being examined as a new way for identifying tissue type. In addition, methylation markers are being investigated as a method to determine other relevant information about donors, such as the age …

Identification of Saliva Using DNA Methylation Analysis for Forensic Use
… fluids: blood, semen, vaginal epithelial tissue, and saliva. While serological testing can identify these tissue types to some degree of accuracy, there has recently been momentum in research to use DNA methylation for tissue identification.</p> <p>In the current study, five potential …

Assessment of stress-induced and developmentally-induced DNA methylation changes in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
DNA methylation is involved in both plant development and adaptation to environmental stress. Changes in DNA methylation can affect the expression of genes that are important for both plant tissue differentiation and stress response. Characterisation of tissue and stress specific methylation …
