Genetic fingerprinting was invented by Alec Jeffreys in September 1984. Jeffreys was knighted in 1994 for this and other contributions to science.
The genetic code was not invented, it was discovered!
A DNA fingerprint is 'taken' by removing the genetic material from a cell. This genetic material consists of DNA bases which are sorted into groups. The DNA bases are then cut and some radioactive nucleutides added. The radioactive DNA is then collected and is ready for analysis.

DNA fingerprinting is used for forensic identification to solve crimes and establish paternity in legal cases. It is also used in medical diagnosis to detect genetic disorders and diseases. In addition, DNA fingerprinting is utilized in conservation biology to study genetic diversity and track endangered species.
The use of RFLPs in generic fingerprinting is based on the ability of restriction enzymes to dissect DNA into small fragments. There are many kinds of restriction enzymes made to cut various DNA sequences.
In biological terms, cloning is the process by which genetically identical individuals are created. DNA fingerprinting, or DNA typing, is a test to identify a person's genetic information.
