This article presents a review of the developments in the GEDNAP blind trials over the period covering the past 10 years (1993-2003), demonstrating the changing approach to DNA investigations in the European community as a whole. The results of the trials also identify the most common types of error encountered which can also occur during routine DNA typing and ways of recognising such errors are suggested.
