title: [DNA analysis of a 500 year mummy sample].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To accumulate experience for dated forensic matter analysis, for example, Mummy.
  
  
  METHODS
  DNA are extracted by methods of phenol-chloroform and are purified by Wizard DNA clean-up system. The STRs locus are ampolification with Promega Powerplus 16 system. The mtDNA hypervariable region 1 (HV1) is amplificated by '3 pair primers'. The products were sequenced with 377 DNA sequencer.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The STRs locus very distinctness and mtDNA sequence is correct.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  It is a valuable method for special forensic matters.
