Summary

Description
English: 1: A cell sample is taken- usually a cheek swab or blood test
2: DNA is extracted from sample
3: Cleavage of DNA by restriction enzyme- the DNA is broken into small fragments 
4: Small fragments are amplified by the Polymerase Chain Reaction- results in many 
more fragments 
5: DNA fragments are separated by electrophoresis
6: The fragments are transferred to an agar plate
7: On the Agar Plate specific DNA fragments are bound to a radioactive DNA probe
8: The Agar Plate is washed free of excess probe
9: An x-ray film is used to detect a radioactive pattern
10: The DNA is compared to other DNA samples
