Genetic Identity Product Profiles: GenePrint® Silver STR Systems

FFv Multiplex F13A01, FESFPS, vWA

Description

The FFv Silver STR System provides a rapid, non-radioactive method designed to obtain a DNA type, or genetic fingerprint using very small amounts (e.g., 1ng) of human DNA. The three STR loci that are included in this multiplex system, F13A01, FESFPS and vWA, contain alleles of discrete and separable lengths. This allows the construction of allelic ladders that contain fragments of the same length as several or all known alleles for the locus. Visual comparison between the allelic ladder and amplified samples of the same locus allows rapid and precise assignment of alleles.

Features

  • Economical:

  • The FFv Silver STR System does not require fluorescent detection equipment for analysis. The system is ideal for labs that are starting STR analysis or that do not wish to purchase expensive fluorescent detection equipment.
  • Efficient:

  • Less than one day required for sample to data analysis. The FFv Silver STR System allows simultaneous amplification of threenon-overlpaping STR loci (F13A01, FESFPS and vWA) for high discrimination power.
  • Sensitive:

  • vAmplification of 1-25ng of genomic DNA.
  • Tolerant:

  • More tolerant of degraded DNA than other typing methods.
  • Easy Transition:

  • Promega’s STR systems allow the customer to transition easily from a silver system format to the fluorescence detection format of the GenePrint® STR Systems, while using the same loci in each system.
  • Outstanding Technical Support:

  • Promega Technical Services Representatives are highly trained scientists who provide exceptional support for the entire Promega product line. Promega also provides technical training and support for its global distribution network and conducts customer training workshops in human DNA typing.
