Abstract excerpt
After failure of conventional typing and multilocus DNA fingerprinting methods to compare a minute vaginal swab stain with blood from a murder victim and a suspect, we used enzymatic DNA amplification (polymerase chain reaction, PCR) to discriminate the DNAs by typing of simple sequence lengths p...
