SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This book presents scientific reports of the most recent advances in the forensic application of modern hemogenetics, mainly based on DNA technology. The wide variety of polymorphic DNA systems applied, such as VNTR, STR, and other PCR-based polymorphisms, have been dealt with extensively. New perspectives offered by techniques such as capillary electrophoresis, DNA sequencing and the so-called "DNA chip-technology" are also covered by contributions by the leading scientists in the field. This volume offers a large amount of useful data and methods that can be directly used by scientists working in the fields of forensic and legal medicine, forensic science, population genetics, anthropology, biostatistics, and immunohematology.
