📝Abstract

Forensic DNA or DNA profiles has played major role in criminal justice system. Newer development in the field of nanotechnology has been of increasing interest in recent years. This paper reviews the evolution of DNA fingerprinting in the field of forensics to a point where trace amount of ‘Junk DNA’ can be used in ‘Point of Care’ diagnostics, thus increasing the practice of forensic odontology. A point of care device, microfluidics (lab on a chip) is becoming a cutting edge diagnostic technology in forensic analysis as it is designed to access advanced laboratory facilities within a bio-chip.

Key Words: DNA fingerprinting, forensic DNA, microfluidics, lab on chip, point of care diagnostics.
