Abstract
Transferrin subtyping by isoelectric focusing was performed on a total of 362 paternity cases involving white and black child, mother, and alleged father trios. The probability of exclusion (P) in white and black paternity cases was 0.19 and 0.14, respectively. Reproducibility of TF subtyping and the simularity of observed vs. expected exclusion rates demonstrates that TF subtyping is a valuable tool in the routine test panel.Keywords
