Acido desoxirribonucleico (DNA) en pruebas de filiación, paternidad y medicina forense

RESUMO

A new precise method of personal identification with significant implications for civil and criminal paternity cases, as well as for other forensic purposes and genetic studies is presented. DNA multi-locus analysis offers a discrimination of 1 in 30 billions, cosntituting the most precise determination in paternity testing. If we consider that the world populations is around 5 billions people, and that less that 2.5 billions are males, of the wich approximately 1/3 are not adults, then we can see how the possibility of error is extremely low. It makess other paternity with HLA, blood groups, enzimes and proteins ineffective in paternity disputes. All courts and legal personnel should be awere of the scientific implications of this new available test in our media
