DNAPrint genomics, Inc. announced today that it has finished validating an ultra-high throughput version of its proprietary RETINOME genetic test for predicting human (eye) iris color from DNA. The new test has been added to the Company's proprietary DNAWitness 2.5 physical profiling package of genome tests sold to forensics and security investigators. Now not only can the genetic profile of the crime scene DNA be told, but investigators can also describe the eye color if their DNA genetic results fall into the correct category. Each time this is done, the "donor pool" of individuals and the number of suspects is reduced. Combining DNAPrint's DNAWitness technology with RETINOME and standard STR testing, as well as mitochondrial and y-Chromosome testing, this is a powerful combination of information for investigators.
