A population study was carried out on 301 ethnic Germans from Düsseldorf (Northrhine Westphalia) using the short tandem repeat (STR) system HumF13B (Coagulation Factor XIIIB). Five different alleles were detected. No deviations from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium could be observed. In spite of the successfulness of the system only a few population data exist. A pooled sample from Northrhine Westphalia has to be used as preliminary database for forensic and anthropological purposes.
