Composite profiles in DNA analysis

Abstract

Composite profiles are created by combining DNA profiling information from replicate profiles derived from the same DNA extract. In this paper we have shown that, provided the probability of drop-in is low or nil, the creation of composite profiles is an acceptable approximation to a Bayesian approach, as long as simple samples are analysed.
