This data was produced with approval from the NIST Research Protections Office. It is intended for research, training, and educational purposes only and could potentially contain errors due to limited review prior to uploading. This data should not be used to identify the donor of the profile or uploaded/searched versus public or law enforcement DNA databases. Certain commercial equipment, instruments, or materials are identified in this dataset in order to specify the experimental procedure adequately. Such identification is not intended to imply recommendation or endorsement by NIST, nor is it intended to imply that the materials or equipment identified are necessarily the best available for the purpose.
