Abstract
The development of the PCR for amplifiyng DNA sequences has raised the possibility that variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) and other DNA polymorphisms might be analyzed even in samples where either the sensitivity, the quantity, or the level of degradation would, have represented an unbrechable obstacle with other methods.
