Abstract
In this study we present two new pentaplex systems for the coamplification of X-chromosomal short tandem repeats (STRs). X-penta-1 comprises DXS9898, DXS6807, HPRTB, DXS101, and androgen receptor (ARA); X-penta-2 consists of DXS7133, DXS10011, DXS7424, DXS8377, and DXS8378. In addition, allele frequencies for these loci in a northeast German population comprising 100 females and 105 males were shown. The applicability and usefulness of our two PCR pentaplex approaches in paternity deficiency cases is demonstrated by a combined power of discrimination (PDc) for both females and males with PDc > 0.999999.
