Abstract

For years now, forensic DNA testing has been established and accepted as the. standard procedure in a widespread sphere of various police examinations all over the Europe. DNA analysis is currently used as a core method in all types of examination, from routine parental testing up to the complicated analysis of biological evidence found at the crime scene. Data obtained through this analysis are highly reliable and can be used as a very powerful tool that produces valuable residts.

Unfortunately, until recently Bosnia and Herzegovina's vital law and order institutions, Police and Judiciary, have not been able to use this powerful tool to fight the crime. Only during the last year (2002), INGEB has successfully established system for DNA analysis of basic as well as the most complicated (small degraded, mixed) biological evidence.

This work theoretically, but also with respecting the result of practical work, present DNA analysis and its basic parameters. Complete understanding of basic DNA fingerprinting postulates is the only way to avoid inexact and incorrect understanding of its residts.
