In order to enrich the population data of Italian allele frequencies, five new ENFSI/EDNAP miniSTR loci D1S1656, D2S441, D10S1248, D12S391 and D22S1045 were tested in 100 unrelated Italian individuals living in Ferrara, using two different commercial multiplexes. The concordance of the genotypes has been evaluated in duplicate experiments, using different kits. No discordant genotypes were revealed for the five ENFSI/EDNAP miniSTR markers. The χ2 test, used to evaluate the distribution of genotypes, showed no significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE).
