How are RFLP made?
A DNA sample is broken into pieces by restriction enzymes and the resulting fragments are separated according to their lengths by gel electrophoresis. RFLP analysis was the first DNA profiling technique inexpensive enough to see widespread application. But isn't as widely used now.
What is the difference between a gene and RFLP?

What is involved in a DNA test?
The whole science behind it involves a process called agarose gel electrophoresis, which involves DNA being put on a buffer. First, a comb is placed on the left side of a box, on the negative side. Then, buffer is placed into the box until it cools and becomes solid, similar to frozen gel. Once cool, the agarose is poured onto the buffer so there is just a slight amount of agarose above the level of buffer. The comb is then taken out, leaving holes where the comb was. Then, the DNA is put into the holes made by the comb. There is an electric power supply that is attached to the box that contains buffer which the DNA was put upon, and when switched on, the electric power supply puts a charge on the agarose, making the DNA go all the way to the right (towards the positive side, since DNA is negatively charged). This will separate the DNA into RFLP's (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism). The RFLP's are not all the same length- the bigger RFLP's will move slower, and thus not move too far from the starting point, which was on the negative side on the left. The smaller RFLP's will move fast and far, spreading out the RFLP's by size. After about 2 hours, the electric power supply is turned off, leaving the RFLP's spread out by size. If you compare one human's DNA to any other human's DNA, there will be little difference. This is the same for every human. However, there is a slight difference in everyone's DNA. When the RFLP's are created after agarose gel electrophoresis, there will be some RFLP's that are different from others. When agarose gel electrophoresis is done for the DNA specimin found, the entire section of RFLP's should match up. If the RFLP's don't match up, than the person was not the culprit.
Is it possible for two people to have the exact same RFLP banding pattern?
It's possible, it is just very rare.
What is another name for DNA strand?
DNA profiling and DNA typing. A more technological term used in laboratories is RFLP analysis, or Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism.
What is the rflps?
Do you mean "RFLP" if so its, restriction fragment length polymorphism. (DNA analysis)

Why is STR analysis better then RFLP analysis?
because STR only requires small pieces of DNA (2-5 base pairs long). it is fast and automated wheres RFLP can take up to a month to accomplish. STR is also better because it allows the use of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). whereas RFLP requires large amounts of non-degraded DNA and automation is not possible.

In molecular biology RFLP is an acronym for what?
RLFP is an acronym for Resriction Fragment Length Polymorphism. RLFP analysis is used to identify changes in a genetic sequence that occurs at a site where a restriction enzyme cuts. RFLP's can be used to identify specific mutations and also trace inheritance patterns!
What can be the main limiting factor in the use of RFLP?

What method is used to make DNA fingerprints?
A method known as RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) analysis can be used to make a DNA fingerprint.

What are the basic things that will be taught during vibration analysis training?
Some of the basic things that will be taught during the vibration analysis training include how to tune instruments or program computers / software to do a vibration analysis.
