The Mixture Analysis Tools are provided as a service to the forensic community.
NCFS has not performed extensive validation of these tools and therefore the presence
of a tool does not necessarily imply the endorsement of the method by NCFS. The
software tools compute the possible haplotype contributors to a forensic
casework Y-STR mixture and provide a count of how many times these haplotypes are
found in the Database.
Prior to use in any criminal and/or civil case matter, users
will need to conduct their own validation of the software and/or independently confirm
the results on a case-by-case basis. Instructions for use are included in each program.
Click the links below to open the desired program and enable macros. The California
Department of Justice mixture tool queries only full Yfiler haplotypes within the
Database, Release 2.6. The Harris County mixture tool queries all samples within
the Database, Release 2.6.
