- Regarding STR markers used in forensic science. Tick all the correct statements: no correct statement the PCR primers used to amplify STRs are located in the repeat units PCR primers to amplify STRs are located on both sides of the repeat units the PCR primers used to amplify STRs are coupled to a fluorochrome which is essential for the detection of amplicons they are absent from the gonosomes the allelic frequencies of STR markers vary according to the ethnicity of the individuals genotyped they are present homogeneously throughout the nuclear genomearrow_forwardDNA fingerprinting uses a process called gel electrophoresis to separate the fragments of DNA. Once the DNA fragments are sorted, the pattern of bands can be analyzed. Gel Electrophoresis Procedure The smaller DNA fragments start to move away from the wells and the larger DNA fragments remain closer to the wells. An electric current is passed through the gel. DNA fragments are treated with a dye. A restriction endonuclease is added to the DNA. Using micropipettes, the DNA samples are added to the wells. DNA fingerprint is produced. DNA fragments are produced.
