Researchers tested a novel forensic technique of cell staining on 100 volunteers to confirm how people shed varying levels of DNA.

New DNA forensic technique is looking for a reliable method to measure a suspect’s individual level of natural shedding of skin and other cells

Every person sheds different levels of DNA into environment through coughing, flushing, and, desquamation and a method to measure this is expected to help police officials catch criminals. The study maintained that inter-laboratory trials are needed to assess whether cell scoring between persons and institutes record persons consistently in terms of shedder type.
