AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing STR technology has difficulty achieving effective amplification in degraded and trace DNA samples, leading to difficulties in individual identification and paternity testing, especially in complex cases where sample preservation is poor, resulting in DNA structural changes that lead to fragment loss and increased inhibitor concentrations.

Method used

A MiniSTR fluorescent multiplex amplification system was designed, containing 18 short tandem repeat sequence sites. Using six-color fluorescent labeling and an optimized PCR amplification kit, it can simultaneously amplify 17 autosomal STR sites and 1 sex site in a single tube. The amplification product is less than 300 bp, making it suitable for samples with high degradation or high inhibitor content.

Benefits of technology

It improves the success rate of typing trace amounts and degraded DNA, enhances individual identification rate, makes up for the shortcomings of traditional kits in typing degraded samples, shortens detection time and improves experimental efficiency, and is suitable for the detection of a variety of human samples.

Abstract

This invention relates to the field of biotechnology, specifically to a MiniSTR fluorescent multiplex amplification system and kit containing 18 short tandem repeat sequences. It discloses primer sequences targeting 17 autosomal STR loci and 1 sex locus. The core PCR products of these specific amplification primers are all less than 300 bp, increasing the number of loci detected in degraded samples. This system offers advantages such as speed, high sensitivity, and adaptability for detecting trace amounts or degraded samples, making it suitable for highly degraded or inhibitory samples.
