[STR and RFLP polymorphism in paternity determination based on family investigation].

This paper shows a paternity examination of a deceased putative father carried out on the basis of his family investigation. Statistical evaluation proved the defendant's paternity using STR and RFLP analyses with the probability of more than 99,999% (PI > 100 000). The restriction analysis has proven considerably more informative than the amplification analysis, which means seven RFLP markers correspond with the similar paternity indices of the fifteen STR markers.
