Metagenomic analyses of bacteria on human hairs: a qualitative assessment for applications in forensic science

Background: Mammalian hairs are one of the most ubiquitous types of trace evidence collected in the course of forensic investigations. However, hairs that are naturally shed or that lack roots are problematic substrates for DNA profiling; these hair types often contain insufficient nuclear DNA to yi...
