GeneMarker®HID Human Identity Software
GeneMarker®HID human identity software is an excellent choice for all forensic profiling applications. This expert system software can be employed as a "biologist-friendly" replacement for GeneScan®/GenoTyper® or as an alternative to GeneMapper® ID and GeneMapper® IDX human identification software, reducing analyst required edits by 18-73% per sample.
GeneMarker® HID is concordant with GeneMapper®ID and GeneMapper®IDX and compatible with ABI®PRISM 310, 3100, 3130, 3730, 3500 CE output (.fsa, .hid) and chemistries (including GlobalFiler™ 6-Dye™, Identifiler®, Minifiler®, PowerPlex®16, PowerPlex®ESI, PowerPlex®Fusion 5 and 6 Dye, Investigator®24Plex, Investigator®DIPplex and SureID® STR chemistries) uses advanced Windows® technology that is intuitive and easy to learn. In addition to standard STR analysis, GeneMarker HID software has been optimized to analyze profiles from YSTRs, Low Copy Number LCN samples, ABI's MiniFiler™ Kit, and replicate sample consensus.

GeneMarker® HID software is concordant with GeneMapper®ID and GeneMapper®IDX software and compatible with output files major capillary electrophoresis systems (including .fsa, .hid from ABI®PRISM, Applied Biosystems SeqStudio™, Hiachi High-Tech Compact CE Sequencer DS3000, Promega Spectrum Compact CE Systems and Syntol Nanophore® 05 genetic analyzers, Rapid DNA systems (such as RapidHIT™-ID, RapidHIT™ and ANDE®) as well as custom primers or commercially available chemistries including, but not limited to those from Promega, QIAGEN and Thermo Fisher and .fsax files per the file format released by the Office of Biometric Identity Management Department of Homeland Security (OBI DHS), including peaks with RFU above 32,500 and additional dye channels.
GeneMarkerHID software is compatible with Windows® Operating Systems that are within Microsoft Extended Support.
In addition to standard STR analysis, GeneMarker HID software has been optimized to analyze profiles from Y-STRs, Low Copy Number LCN samples, ABI's MiniFiler™ Kit, and replicate sample consensus.
GeneMarkerHID software also includes applications to assist experts with 2 contributor Mixture Analysis (use MaSTR probabilistic mixture analysis software for 1-5 contributor mixtures), Relationship testing, database searching for matching/near matching profiles, familial search capabilities, missing persons identification, and paternity testing. GeneMarkerHID software has been validated by forensic labs world-wide and has many time-saving tools, including an automated contamination check, which reduce casework backlogs and analyst fatigue. In addition, GeneMarkerHID software is intuitive and easily accessible as it runs on Windows® Operating Systems that are within Microsoft Extended Support.
Developed in collaboration with Mitchell Holland, Ph.D., Pennsylvania State University's Forensic Science Program.
GeneMarkerHID is compatible with the New NOCIt™ Number of Contributor Software.
