This GUI is a tool to compute the Paternity Index in a lawsuit for paternity attribution or exclusion. It is possible to use the Applied Biosystems, Promega or Biotype forensic kits. The GUI can be use in presence or in absence of the mother's data. If the alleged father is not available (in case of death) it is possible to setup the procedure using a father's relative. The GUI also has a module for incest lawsuit. Data can be saved and reloaded. Moreover there are several demo and info of the used STRs.
Before to compute PI, the GUI checks if "mater certa est" and if Mother and Child samples were swapped.
Now it computes also reverse parentage: this is the case to adopt in case of kidnapping or suspect baby exchange into the nursery
