[Glyn Stacey] DNA fingerprinting is an important new development for the authentication of cell lines. Multilocus methods such as those developed by Alec Jeffreys provide information on a wide range of genetic loci throughout the human genome and thus give a useful genetic Òsnap-shotÓ of a cell culture. Our work has shown that Jeffreys multilocus fingerprinting method can be applied to cell lines from a wide range of animals including reptiles, birds, fish and diverse mammals. It can also differentiate very closely related cell lines including those from the same mouse strain... , "[W.
