Area of Science:

  • Population Genetics
  • Forensic Science
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Short tandem repeats (STRs) are crucial genetic markers for human identification.
  • Population-specific frequency data is essential for accurate forensic DNA analysis.
  • The AmpF/STR Profiler Plus kit is a widely used tool for STR profiling.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the allele frequencies of STR loci within the AmpF/STR Profiler Plus kit.
  • To assess the genetic diversity in a South Poland population sample.
  • To validate the suitability of these STR loci for forensic applications in the region.

Main Methods:

  • Collected DNA samples from 253 unrelated individuals from South Poland.
  • Genotyped samples using the AmpF/STR Profiler Plus kit.
