Use of DNA technology in forensic dentistry
The established importance of Forensic Dentistry for human identification, mainly when there is little remaining material to perform such identification (e.g., in fires, explosions, decomposing bodies or skeletonized bodies), has led dentists working with forensic investigation to become more familiar with the new molecular biology techniques. The currently available DNA tests have high reliability and are accepted as legal proofs in courts. This article presents a literature review referring to the main studies on Forensic Dentistry that involve the use of DNA for human identification, and makes an overview of the evolution of this technology in the last years, highlighting the importance of molecular biology in forensic sciences

Comparison of multiplicity distributions to the negative binomial distribution in muon-proton scattering
Determination of ABH antigens in fingernails using the APAAP (immunoalkaline phosphatase) technique
IMPROVEMENTS IN TECHNIQUE FOR DETERMINING THE SURFACTANT PENETRATION IN HAIR FIBRES USING SCANNING ION BEAM ANALYSES
High-frequency EPR and pulsed Q-band ENDOR studies on the origin of the hydrogen bond in tyrosyl radicals of ribonucleotide reductase R2 proteins from mouse and herpes simplex virus type 1.
Nanoparticles in the Biological Context: Surface Morphology and Protein Corona Formation
Hair-based rapid analyses for multiple drugs in forensics and doping : application of dynamic multiple reaction monitoring with LC-MS/MS
This is the first report of the application of this proprietary system to investigate the presence of drugs in human hair samples. The method is selective, sensitive and robust for the screening and confirmation of multiple drugs in a single analysis and has potential as a very useful tool for the analysis of large array of controlled substances and drugs of abuse
