Time required to obtain results 6-8 weeks with radioactive probes; ~1 week with chemiluminescent probes 1-2 days Characteristic RFLP Methods PCR Methods Amount of DNA needed 50-500 ng 0.1-1 ng Condition of DNA needed high molecular weight, intact DNA may be highly degraded Capable of handling sample mixtures Yes (single locus probes) Yes Allele identification Binning required Discrete alleles obtained Power of Discrimination ~1 in 1 billion with 6 loci ~1 in 1 billion with 8-13 loci (requires more loci) ©2002 AP, Elsevier Comparison of RFLP and PCR
