Abstract

The paper reports on the results of biological examination of downy shawls conducted to identify counterfeit items branded as Orenburg Downy Shawls. Analysis was based on morphological comparison of downy hairs from questioned shawls with known authentic samples of downy hairs from goats of the Orenburg breed.
