biom:DNAEncoding (biom:DNAEncodingType)

An encoding or representation of the DNA data from a person (can be a composite profile based on multiple DNA samples) or a DNA sample (can be a single-source sample or a mixture sample from a crime scene).

View UML for type: biom:DNAEncodingType

biom:DNAEncoding is contained within these types:
biom:DNAEncoding can contain:
  • biom:DNATypingTechnologyCode
        A kind of typing technology used on a DNA sample. DNATypingTechnologyCode is added in NIEM 5.1 to replace DNATypingTechnologyCategoryCode in the future. This is because "Nuclear (including Autosomal STR, X-STR and Y-STR)" as a DNA Typing Technology Category is not specific enough. DNA typing technology for nuclear DNA can be STR, or SNP or some other/future technology. The "Nuclear" code value should be replaced by "STR" code value. Similarly, the "mtDNA" code value should be replaced by "mtDNA First Generation" code value. the code values "Electropherogram data" and "Electropherogram ladder" are not technologies and should be removed.
  • biom:DNASampleCollection
        A description of the DNA sample collection
  • biom:DNASource
        A description of the DNA source such as the source category person vs. stain; cellular orgin blood, etc
  • biom:DNAProcess
        A description of the DNA testing and analysis process used to produce a DNA profile
  • biom:DNAAnalysis
        A description of the DNA analysis data or "raw" data
  • biom:DNASTRData
        A description of the DNA data from the short tandem repeat (STR) analysis on nuclear DNA
  • biom:DNAMitoData
        A description of the mitochondria DNA (mtDNA) data
  • biom:DNACommentText
        A kind of comment regarding DNA data
