GENHUMAN ID ™ Y Chromosomal DNA STR Identification Kit

GENHUMAN ID™ Y Chromosomal DNA STR Identification Kit

Specialized Kit for Y-STR Based Male Lineage and Forensic Identification

The GENHUMAN ID™ Y Chromosomal DNA STR Identification Kit is a high-precision molecular tool designed to detect short tandem repeat (STR) markers on the Y chromosome. It is ideal for tracing paternal lineages, solving male-specific forensic cases, and conducting male kinship analysis, especially where autosomal STR testing may be limited.

This kit targets multiple highly polymorphic Y-STR loci to provide robust and reliable genetic profiles, particularly useful in criminal casework, ancestry testing, and population studies.

Key Features:

Detects multiple Y-STR loci specific to the male lineage
Ideal for paternal relationship testing and male-specific forensic identification
High discriminatory power among unrelated males
Effective even with degraded or low-quantity DNA samples
Compatible with standard PCR and electrophoresis systems
Simple workflow and rapid turnaround time
Suitable for forensic, anthropological, and genealogical use

Applications:

Male-specific forensic DNA profiling
Paternal lineage testing and surname studies
Paternity testing in deficiency cases
Identification of male individuals in mixed samples
Population genetics and ancestry research
