Streszczenie
The study material comprised tissue fragments recovered from aborted foetuses and blood samples taken from mothers and men suspected of paternity. The presented findings come from two cases in which an abortion was performed with the consent of the Public Prosecutor's Office, because of suspicion that the pregnancy was the result of a criminal action. Abortions were carried out during the 5th-6th and 9th-10th weeks of pregnancy. Determinations (using an MZ1.3 probe) of multi-locus polymorphism, VNTR polymorphism (locus: D1S7, D4S139, D7S21, D5S110, D1S80, D11S12, D8S16), and STR (CSF1PO, TPOX, THO1, F13A01, FESFPS, VWA, F13B) provide grounds in both cases for calculating the probability of paternity of the suspect (in cases of suspected rape).
