DNA amplification fingerprinting and its potential application for genome analysis

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

A DNA sample can be characterized for individual identity according to its chemistry or sequence information. This type of DNA analysis has been referred to as ‘fingerprinting’, ‘profiling’, ‘typing’, ‘genotyping’ or ‘identity testing’. DNA fingerprinting is useful for forensic identification, determination of family relationship, genome linkage mapping, antenatal diagnosis, localization of disease loci, determination of genetic variation, molecular archaeology, and epidemiology (Watkins, 1988; Donis-Keller et al, 1987; Landegren et al, 1988).
