POLYNUCLEOTIDER OG POLYNUCLEOTIDSONDER, FREMSTILLING DERAF OG DERES ANVENDELSE TIL GENETISK KARAKTERISERING

摘要

Test samples of genomic DNA may be characterized by the use of polynucleotide probes each of which is specific for an informative genetic locus. Such probes may be prepared by the use of probes which are capable of differentiating DNA by reference to more than one polymorphic minisatellite region or hypervariable locus. The polynucleotides and probes of the invention are of use for genetic identification purposes, paternity and maternity testing and particularly in forensic medicine.
