title: Interpretation guidelines for mixed-STR multilocus electrophoretic profiles.
abstract: The interpretation of multilocus STR profiling is a complex task that requires a high degree of expertise due to the high number of variables that can affect a biological and analytical process like this.The purpose of this chapter is to provide guidelines to categorize the mixtures using a discrete system and select those in the white area to produce a profile for reporting and/or comparing.
