Submitting a
case

We encourage our clients to telephone or email
us with the specifics of their cases. We can
steer you towards appropriate evidence selection,
from the most probative samples to the correct
choice when alternative but similar samples
are available. We will help our clients to allocate
their usually limited financial resources for
the most sound and supportable outcomes in testing.
One of our primary goals is education of the
criminal justice community, and casework analysis
includes unlimited telephone consultation
about the basic science, and advantages and
limitations of mitochondrial DNA analysis, both
generally and in a specific case.
We are easy to reach by telephone at (814)
861-0676 or email: info@mitotyping.com.
You will not encounter voice messaging: a
live person always picks up the phone during
our business hours!
Note regarding mitochondrial DNA analysis:
Always ask your current mtDNA analysis provider
what percentage of tested hairs and bones yield
results in their hands. We currently
obtain results in well over 90% of cases because
we apply methods specifically designed to recover
minimal and degraded mitochondrial DNA.
Individual sample handling, which greatly increases
the likelihood of DNA recovery, is necessary
in a mtDNA laboratory.
