Background:

  • Paternity testing relies on accurate DNA profiling.
  • Short tandem repeat (STR) markers are widely used in human identification.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a novel multiplex PCR system for paternity testing.
  • To establish a robust and reproducible method for genetic relationship analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Single-tube multiplex PCR amplification of 9 STR loci and the Amelogenin gene.
  • Utilized internal size standards for accurate fragment sizing.
  • Analysis of amplified products using an automated DNA sequencer.

Main Results:

  • The developed STR system yielded unambiguously reliable paternity test results.
