| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| DNA location | mainly in the nucleus |
| Hair root | Nuclear DNA |
| Hair shaft | mitochondrial DNA |
| DNA in blood | White blood cells only |
| Dye blobs | unincorporated dye molecules, large peaks, appear in one color channel only |
| stutter peaks | PCR slippage causes the polymerase to repeat or delete a repeat unit, typically one repeat shorter then the true allele. |
| incomplete adenylation | taq polymerase may add an extra adenine results in two peaks one with an A addition and one without |
| Pull up/bleed-through | fluorescence from one dye channel is detected in another. Usually appears at the same base pair size across channels. |
| spikes | sharp peaks caused by electrical noise or capillary issues. narrow extremely tall and do not resemble allele peaks |
