Abstract

In three separate crime cases identification was achieved using three different PCR systems D1S80 (Budowle et al., 1991), TC11 (Edwards et al., 1992) and SE33 (Polymeropoulos et al., 1992). Although more than 27 alleles are known in the D1S80 system the value of the findings is limited, because of the high frequency of the alleles 18 and 24.
