Abstract
•Recovery of DNA from damp/mouldy items during routine forensic casework.•DNA analysis using the Powerplex ESI-17 Fast kit.•PCR artefact at D16S539 locus masquerading as a ‘15′ allele.•Potential misinterpretation of genotype.•Probably caused by co-amplification of co-extracting microbial DNA.
