● The `color{Violet}"VNTR"` belongs to a class of satellite DNA referred to as `color{Violet}"mini-satellite"`.
● A `color{Violet}"small DNA sequence"` is `color{Violet}"arranged tandemly"` in many `color{Violet}"copy numbers"`.
● The copy number varies from `color{Violet}"chromosome to chromosome"` in an individual.
● The numbers of repeat show very `color{Violet}"high degree of polymorphism"`.
● As a result the size of VNTR varies in size from `color{Violet}"0.1 to 20 kb"`.
● Consequently, after `color{Violet}"hybridisation with VNTR"` probe, the autoradiogram gives many `color{Violet}"bands of differing sizes"`.
● These bands give a `color{Violet}"characteristic pattern"` for an individual DNA.
● It differs from `color{Violet}"individual to individual"` in a population except in the case of `color{Violet}"monozygotic"` (identical) `color{Violet}"twins"`.
● The `color{Violet}"sensitivity"` of the technique has been increased by use of `color{Violet}"polymerase chain reaction"`.
● Consequently, DNA from a `color{Violet}"single cell"` is enough to perform `color{Violet}"DNA fingerprinting analysis"`.
● In addition to application in `color{Violet}"forensic science"`, it has much wider application, such as in `color{Violet}"determining population"` and `color{Violet}"genetic diversities"`.
● Currently, many `color{Violet}"different probes"` are used to generate DNA fingerprints.
