摘要
Urine samples are commonly analysed in cases with suspected illicit drug consumption. In events of alleged sample mishandling, urine sample source identification may be necessary. A simple DNA extraction procedure suitable for STR typing of urine samples was established on the Promega Maxwell (R) 16 paramagnetic silica bead platform. A small sample volume of 1.7 mL was used. Samples were stored at room temperature, 4 degrees C and -20 degrees C for 100 days to investigate the influence of storage temperature and time on extracted DNA quantity and success rate of STR typing. Samples stored at room temperature exhibited a faster decline in DNAyield with time and lower typing success rates as compared to those at 4 degrees C and -20 degrees C. This trend can likely be attributed to DNA degradation. In conclusion, this study presents a quick and effective DNA extraction protocol from a small urine volume stored for up to 100 days at 4 degrees C and -20 degrees C. (c) 2018 Elsevier B.V.
