Abstract excerpt

Short tandem repeat (STR) loci, widely used as genetic markers in disease diagnostic studies and human identity applications, are traditionally genotyped through comparison of allele sizes to a sequenced allelic ladder. Allelic ladders permit a floating bin allele calling method to be utilized, which enables reliable allele calling across laboratories, instrument platforms, and electrophoretic conditions. Precise...
