    Certain multiplexing kits combine both autosomal and Y-STR loci into one kit further reducing the amount of time it takes to obtain a large amount of data. Currently, STR analysis requires multiple cells to create a full DNA profile. However, science is getting closer to creating a full DNA profile using STR analysis on single cells. [18]
