[Paternity determination using the RFLP method in DNA probes].

By the discovery of restriction fragment length polymorphism and hypervariable minisatellite sequences paternity testings have become possible with almost one hundred percent probability. The procedure is based on the improvement of DNA probes which can recognize the different regions of minisatellites in the whole site of human genome. These sequences are found in noncoding regions of DNA, in the so-called intrones, in areas between genes. The sequence motives have a discriminating power and provide a possibility to distinguish individuals.
