Determining the Size of the D18S51 Long Alleles Observed in the Costa Rican Population using Commercial Genotyping Kits with STRs
As previously reported, the Costa Rican population exhibits long alleles (not included in commercial allelic ladders) at the STR D18S51 locus, ranging from 28 to 40 Repetitions. These alleles were described using the PowerPlex®16 and AmpFLSTR™ Identifiler™. With the arrival of new commercial kits, it is necessary to identify these long alleles in D18S51 […]
