DNA Profiling of Buccal Swab Samples
PowerPlex® ESI kit (Promega Corp.) was used for further analysis. Similar amounts of DNA were used in all PCR reactions. Amplification was carried out as described previously (12 ). The total reaction volume was 10 μL. Additionally, PowerPlex®Y23 kit (Promega Corp.) was used to simultaneously amplify 23 Y-STR loci according to manufacturer’s recommendations (13 ). PCR amplification was carried out by the Applied Biosystems® GeneAmp® PCR System 9700 (Life Technologies) according to manufacturer’s recommendations. Electrophoresis of the amplification products was performed on an ABI PRISM 310 Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems). The raw data were compiled and analyzed using 310 Data Collection Software and GeneMapperTM 3.2.

Optimized PowerPlex Y23 Amplification
Y-STR Profiling Using ABI 3500
The Y chromosome STR fragments were analyzed using the GeneMapper ID-X v 1.2.1 software (Applied Biosystems, 2009) after importing the PowerPlex ® Y23 panels, bins, and stutter text files. The previously validated value of 100 rfus (Relative Fluorescence Units) was used as the peak height analysis threshold.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
