Abstract for PowerPlex® 1.1 System

The PowerPlex® 1.1 System allows the co-amplification and two-color detection of eight STR loci. In the PowerPlex® 1.1 System, one of the two primers for D16S539, D7S820, D13S317 and D5S818 is labeled with fluorescein (FL), and one primer specific for CSF1PO, TPOX, TH01 and vWA is labeled with carboxy-tetramethylrhodamine (TMR). All eight loci are amplified simultaneously in a single tube and analyzed in a single gel lane. Loci amplified using the PowerPlex® 1.1 System also can be co-amplified with the GenePrint® Fluorescent Sex Identification System—Amelogenin (TMR), allowing the detection of nine loci in a single gel lane.

The PowerPlex® 1.1 System is customized for use with the Hitachi FMBIO® and FMBIO® II fluorescence imaging systems. The system provides all of the materials necessary for amplification of STR regions of purified genomic DNA except for Taq DNA polymerase. This manual contains protocols for use of the PowerPlex® 1.1 System with the Perkin-Elmer model 480 and GeneAmp® PCR system 9600 thermal cyclers in addition to protocols for separation of amplified products and detection of separated material.
