Are there any specific laboratory accreditation guidelines in India for forensic DNA-based identification of wildlife species ?

I'm looking specifically for guidelines for validating and accrediting DNA-based wildlife species identification tests, which would generally be PCR-based. I'm not sure if there are any specific guidelines in force in India. Are there any international guidelines (e.g.USFDA, OIE) that are adopted by countries without their own guidelines?

I can refer you to 17025 Standards that are generic but have lot of meat in terms of technical standards. I agree that most relevant technical details are available with the Society of Wildlife Forensics.
