DNA Profiling

DNA Profiling: enhancing the control of Crime through emerging technologies  How crime can be controlled by specific Biotechnology Applications of DNA Fingerprinting? D NA. i.e.Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid acts as genetic material. The unique property of the DNA due to its chemical properties. The chemical structure of everyone's DNA is the same but the only difference between person DNA is the order of the base pairs. Hence the result is every person could be identified solely by its sequence of their base pairs.  DNA profiling is a technique used to distinguish between individuals of the same species using only samples of their DNA.
