Abstract
Blood samples from 120 Spanish Caucasian individuals were amplified and typed by electrophoresis at six loci, and by reverse dot-blot hybridization at one locus. Results demonstrate the assumption of independence within and between the seven loci analyzed. Therefore, a Spanish population database has been established and statistical analysis shows that a high degree of discrimination can be obtained when all seven (or fewer) loci are used to characterize forensic biological evidence.
