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.

Analysis of fragments of DNA as a form of identification?
DNA Fingerprinting
What characteristic of short tandem repeat DNA makes it useful for DNA fingerprinting?
The sequence of DNA that is repeated varies significantly from individual to individual.
What takes advantage of repeated DNA sequences that do not code for proteins?
DNA fingerprinting is a technique that takes advantage of repeated DNA sequences that do not code for proteins. It is a useful technique in forensic science.
What is used to copy dna for dna fingerprinting?
Nuclear transfer
What are three tools of biotechnology?
DNA chips, automated DNA sequencing, gene library, DNA fingerprinting
What checks DNA for error?

Why do humans feel it is necessary to pursue fingerprinting?
DNA fingerprinting offers a technique to single out an individual with a 100% success rate. A persons DNA fingerprint is unique and this quality becomes very useful in forensic applications. Therefore, there is much interest in DNA fingerprinting. In research however, fingerprinting is used to differentiate between different strains of a certain species of bacteria for epidemiological studies

Why is DNA fingerprinting unreliable?
DNA fingerprinting is not as reliable as regular DNA profiling. Statistics show that about one out every 800,000 people have the same DNA fingerprint.
What science concept for fingerprinting?
DNA coding is a science concept for fingerprinting
Fragments of DNA as a form of identification?
DNA fingerprinting
Is DNA fingerprinting worthy?
Yes, to make the world safer. DNA fingerprinting prevents identity theft and some corruptness.
