Application of DNA "fingerprints" to paternity determinations.
26 cases of disputed paternity were tested by the methods routinely used in Scandinavian countries and by the DNA "fingerprinting" technique. In all the studied cases the results of DNA analyses were similar to those obtained with the routine examinations based on protein polymorphisms; and, in the cases where even HLA typing did not distinguish between tentative fathers, the results obtained with DNA analyses were unambiguous.
