The new service, which utilizes commercial off-the-shelf equipment, can deliver a DNA profile from evidentiary samples in under 90 minutes and even allows for DNA to be used as a biometric application for identity resolution of detainees at critical screening points.
Bode CEO and president Barry Watson said, "DNA has been labeled the gold standard in forensic science by the National Academy of Science, and this rapid service makes it applicable in more situations."
According to Bode, other rapid DNA systems require significant capital expenditure while providing lower throughput and are limited to only processing reference samples.
Bode Technology COO Mike Cariola said the firm is providing a service that can successfully obtain high quality DNA profiles from evidentiary items rapidly.
"We have implemented an amplification procedure that meets the FBI’s Quality Assurance Standards for validation and sets a new performance level for the forensic community which is a testament to the ingenuity of our scientists," Cariola added.
