Since the introduction in the mid-1980s of analyses of minisatellites for DNA analyses, a revolution has taken place in forensic genetics. The subsequent invention of the PCR made it possible to develop forensic genetics tools that allow both very informative routine investigations and still more and more advanced, special investigations in cases concerning crime, paternity, relationship, disaster victim identification etc. The present review gives an update on the use of DNA investigations in forensic genetics.
自20世纪80年代中期引入用于DNA分析的微卫星分析以来,法医遗传学领域发生了一场革命。随后PCR技术的发明使得开发法医遗传学工具成为可能,这些工具既可以用于提供大量信息的常规调查,也可以用于在涉及犯罪、亲子鉴定、亲属关系鉴定、灾难遇难者身份识别等案件中进行越来越先进的特殊调查。本综述对法医遗传学中DNA调查的应用进行了更新。
