With PCR, it’s possible to replicate millions of copies of targeted DNA templates. These copies can be detected by various methods depending on the genetic system of interest. The forensic identity laboratory at LabCorp currently has the capability of analyzing multiple genetic systems, using PCR methodology as shown below.

PCR systems currently available:

• ABI AmpFlSTR^® Profiler Plus/COfiler™ - (13 CODIS loci)
• ABI AmpFlSTR^® Identifiler™ - (16 loci including the 13 CODIS loci)
• ABI AmpFlSTR^® Minifiler™ - (9 loci)
• ABI AmpFlSTR^® Yfiler™ - (17 loci)
  
• mtDNA
