Since the method of minisatellites for the identification of humans with restriction-fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP) was reported by Jeffreys et al. in 1985, the revolution has taken place within the field of forensic genetics. In the crime case, the DNA markers have advantages over the traditional biological markers and the DNA technologies have been improved continuously. Today, the multiplex STR (short tandem repeat analysis) polymorphisms have become the major and widely used method for human identification test both in criminal investigation and mass disaster victim identification.
