title: Experiences with single locus DNA probes in casework.
abstract: DNA profiling in this laboratory has been employed primarily in cases of sexual assault and the largest category of items examined has been internal vaginal swabs. 79% of these gave a profile which was different from that of the victim. Results have been obtained from swabs taken up to 70 h after intercourse. In cases where DNA results were obtained, one or more suspects were excluded in 29% of the cases.
