Bode Technology’s <b>Rapid DNA Service™</b> provides near real-time DNA analysis for <b>Law Enforcement</b> and <b>Biometric</b> applications. This service provides a DNA profile from forensic samples in <b>less than 90 minutes</b>, allowing immediate response to critical investigations by law enforcement and can offer fast turnaround for pressing identifications, including persons of interest. In 1984, 123 men, women and children were executed at Putis by units of the Peruvian Army, a horrific episode in Peru's decades-old internal conflict. Scientists working with the Peruvian forensic anthropology team (EPAF) exhumed the bodies in 2008 and brought in Bode Technology to identify victims through DNA analysis of skeletal remains. An expert DNA identification team from Bode played a central role in developing the system used to identify a number of the thousands who perished in the deadly 2004 tsunami in Thailand. Advanced DNA analysis techniques pioneered by Bode Technology have allowed us to identify dozens of victims of the 2001 terrorist attack on New York's World Trade Center, even from small and extremely compromised samples years after the actual attack. In 1981, Donald Gates was convicted of the rape and murder of a Georgetown University student in Washington, DC. He was exonerated based on DNA results generated by Bode nearly 28 years later. Despite the age and condition of the sample, Bode was able to successfully use miniSTR analysis to generate a DNA profile that excluded Donald Gates as the perpetrator. Bode Technology has worked with CSI Nairobi and the Nairobi Women's Hospital of Kenya to collect, catalog, and test DNA samples of suspected rapists. More than 1,200 women were raped and hundreds killed after a disputed election in late 2007. The resulting cases marked the first time DNA testing was used to convict criminals in Kenya.
