Mandalay Singleton (left), Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory past accounting technician, shows Reouven Berdugo (right), Israel Defense Forces Genomic Laboratory for Casualty Identification director, the lot numbers used for adapters during the Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) library preparation procedure, in the Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory of the Armed Forces Medical Examiner System at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, Nov. 20, 2025. Recording and tracking these lot numbers is important to the laboratory’s quality assurance system. The adapters are important because they contain unique information that determine which samples are which during analysis. Berdugo and his colleague were at AFDIL to gain insight into the SNPs process to help determine the identity of individuals using highly degraded samples recovered from past conflicts.
