DNA fingerprinting
or DNA profiling
- any of several similar techniques
for analysing and comparing DNA
- used especially in law
enforcement to identify suspects
from hair, blood, semen, or other
biological materials found at the
scene of a violent crime

The
The
Polymorphism
polymorphism is a clinically
harmless DNA variation that
does not affect the phenotype.
At the molecular level,
polymorphism is a variation in
nucleotide sequence from one
individual to another.
Polymorphisms
often occur in
the intervening sequences that
do not code for proteins. [Note:
Only a few percent of the human
genome actually encodes
proteins.]
All the common blood types,
such as the ABO blood group
system , are genetic
polymorphisms.
Tandem repeats
Polymorphism
in chromosomal
DNA can arise from the
presence of a variable number
of tandem repeats .
These are short sequences of
DNA at scattered locations in
the genome, repeated in
tandem (one after another).
The
Cleavage
by restriction enzymes
yields fragments that vary in length
depending on how many repeated
segments are contained in the
fragment.

Gel Electrophoresis
- method of separation of
nanoparticles
- uses a gel as an anticonvective
medium and/or sieving medium
during
electrophoresis ~ the movement
of a charged particle in an
electrical field.
Samples

TraditionalDNAsequencing
techniques
such asMaxam-Glibert or Sangermethods
used polyacrylamide gels to separate DNA
fragments differing by a single base-pair in
length so the sequence could be read.

Starch
Partiallyhydrolysedpotato
starch
makes for another non-toxic
medium for protein
electrophoresis. The gels are
slightly more opaque than
acrylamide or agarose. Nondenatured proteins can be
separated according to charge and
size. They are visualised using
Napthal Black or Amido Black
staining. Typical starch gel
concentrations are 5% to 10%.
Advantages of Gel
Electrophoresis
Improved Diagnosis
-Medical laboratories use electrophoresis to
diagnosis blood disorders.
Simplicity Electrophoresis
-is a fast and easy technique
Low-Cost Material
-The material necessary to perform
electrophoresis costs little and is easy to prepare
Reliability
-Of all the benefits electrophoresis offers,
reliability is the most essential
