What is the FBI codis system?
The CODIS System was developed specifically to enable public forensic DNA laboratories to create searchable DNA databases of authorized DNA profiles. The CODIS software permits laboratories throughout the country to share and compare DNA data. In addition, it provides a central database of the DNA profiles from all user laboratories. See the link below for more information on the CODIS system.
What is equine codis?
Equine CODIS is a proven low-cost tool of identification for the Horse and is based upon the same process as the FBI's own CODIS crime laboratory. The CODIS system (Combined DNA Information Systems) enables crime-fighters nationally and internationally to compare DNA profiles and information. The Equine CODIS system identifies the Horse to an accuracy of 99.999999999999 percent and is available from the Developer "Raymond Sigler" at Wall Street Detectives in Los Angeles, California. The Laboratory for Equine CODIS is Texas A&M College in College Park, Texas. Since Horses don't have fingerprints, DNA is the only absolute accurate method for identification, as microchips, tattoos or branding can be altered, changed or manipulated easily. http://www.equinecodis.com
