it can be as little as a single cell if using low copy number (LCN) analysis however if you are looking for results that are a little more reliable its ussially over 1 nano gram, that's using STR (short tandom repeate) analysis. if using something like RFLP (ristriction fragment length polymorphism) it would be alot more then that, however that technique is hardly used anymore. visually repisented the smallest amount of DNA to produce an STR profile is the size of a full stop .
i hope this helps

DNA fingerprint
A DNA fingerprint is a unique pattern of DNA fragments that can be used to identify individuals.
no its classed as a making of your body for people such as police or crime scene investigators
DNA is similar to a fingerprint in that it is unique to each individual and can be used to identify and distinguish one person from another. Just as a fingerprint is a distinctive mark on a person's skin, DNA is a distinct genetic code that is specific to each person.
ANS1:Because it is technically possible for more than one person to have a similar DNA fingerprint, but it is impossible for someone to have their DNA fingerprint change. So if your fingerprint is:XXYYXYXAnd the guilty persons DNA is:XXXXYYYIt is impossible for you to be the guilty person. But, it is possible that my DNA fingerprint is also XXXXYYY - so please don't commit any crimes near my house or I might get nailed for it.ANS2:DNA fingerprinting always has a margin of error. The error can introduce reasonable doubt. Guilt in a capital case must be proved beyond a reasonable doubt.

DNA fingerprint
Selected fragments are used to produce a DNA fingerprint.
A DNA fingerprint refers to the fact that a person's DNA code is as unique to that person as his/her fingerprint. A person can be implicated for a crime or ruled out as the criminal based on his/her DNA code.
A DNA fingerprint is really all the genes that are found in in your chromosomes. No two are ever alike except for identical twins (or triplets).
A DNA fingerprint is a unique pattern of DNA fragments that can be used to identify individuals.
A method known as RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) analysis can be used to make a DNA fingerprint.

yes
A DNA fingerprint is a pattern of bands that are obtained by separating a person's DNA fragments on a gel and then visualizing them. It appears as a series of dark bands of varying lengths. Each individual's DNA fingerprint is unique, like a genetic barcode.
