Population Data of Three X-Chromosomal STRs: DXS7132, DXS7133 and GATA172D05 in North Italy

Abstract

The samples for database studies were obtained from 175 unrelated healthy individuals (85 women and 90 men) living and born in North Italy. The DNA from blood samples was extracted using a GenomicPrep Blood DNA Isolation Kit (APB, Milano, Italy), according to the manufacturer's instructions. The quantity of human DNA was determined by spectrophotometry. Aliquots of 2-5 ng of target DNA were amplified in singlepex with the primers reported by Edelmann (1) for DXS7133, GATA172D05 and newly designed forward primer for DXS7132.
