Perennial ashes are difficult to analyze for DNA
Speaking to Tuoi Tre Online, Dr. Giang Hoa, deputy director of the Ho Chi Minh City Institute of Genetics and Medicine, said DNA testing on ashes or perennial ashes are completely incapable. Because the ashes after being burned, the bones were completely burned.
According to Dr. Hoa, when the ashes are burned, the DNA is also completely burned, for perennial ashes that are not burned, the bone marrow is dried, crushed, using a very special decomposition method. it can only clone DNA.
If you want to obtain high results, you must use the best technology in genetic analysis. However, the ability to identify the correct gene is still not high, even with 50% accuracy.
According to a criminalist technician – Ministry of Public Security – specialized in DNA evaluation, at present it is not possible to carry out DNA tests from ashes. According to the official, when the body is cremated, the body is burned, the remaining matter is only carbon (ashes), there is no matter containing DNA information to be examined.
