Abstract excerpt
A new multiplex system for six tetranucleotide short tandem repeat (STR) loci was devised based on multicolor dye technology. Six loci (D20S480, D6S2439, D6S1056, D9S1118, D4S2639, and D17S1290), each with high discriminating power (each unbiased estimates of expected heterozygosity, Exp. Hz, > 0.80 in a preliminary test), were selected from more than 100 tetranucleotide STRs included in a commercially available...
