Novel methods and primers for genetic analysis of biological material by polymerase chain reaction using specific primer pairs useful in, e.g. forensic medicine

摘要

Determining the origin of biological material by PCR using specific primers pairs, which are exclusively complementary to the respective animal or plant DNA is new. Detecting the origin of biological material comprises: (a) isolating the DNA from the investigation material; (b) use of /- 1 specific primer pair where each pair comprises primers, which are exclusively complementary to the detected DNA; (c) duplicating the animal, or preferably plant DNA by PCR; and (d) detecting of the specific PCR-products by means of electrophoresis.
