Abstract
We have studied two tetranucleotide short tandem repeats (STRs) (VWA a nd human TPO) in 260 individuals from Galicia by means of polymerase c hain reaction amplification followed by electrophoresis separation and silver staining. The feasibility of the analytical technique and the level of polymorphism attained by both systems (PIC = 0.764 for VWA; P IC = 0.563 for TPO) allow us to consider the two STRs as suitable and informative markers in routine population profiling studies.
