The GlobalFiler IQC kit is a robust and reliable single-amplification STR multiplex kit optimized for use with the most challenging casework samples. The kit leverages six dyes for the incorporation of additional markers, generating a highly discriminating kit for use by the forensic community. The kit contains all of the markers included in the major global databases, including 10 mini-STRs, to help deliver optimized results with even highly degraded samples.
Developed specifically for casework applications, the GlobalFiler kit contains a buffer system that delivers greater sensitivity for enhanced performance with inhibited and low-concentration DNA samples. The addition of the IQC provides more insight into sample quality to assist in distinguishing between inhibition and degradation while also providing a positive control for amplification. The GlobalFiler IQC kit utilizes the latest advances in oligo synthesis and purification, which provide a clean baseline and a balanced profile, resulting in simplified data analysis. Maintenance of the NGM Select and Identifiler primer sequences helps ensure maximum concordance with previously typed samples. In addition, the GlobalFiler IQC kit contains multiple gender markers to enable accurate typing of male samples, even highly degraded or Y-negative samples, while increased genotyping accuracy is obtained with the expansion of the allelic ladder allele ranges to include all rare alleles as described in the literature (STRbase).
