Computer artwork depicting babys paternity test
Paternity testing. Computer artwork of the procedure involved in a babys paternity test. A sample of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, far left) is taken from the baby and its parents. The genetic code formed by the four bases (yellow, blue, green & red, bottom right) on a section of this DNA is revealed by a process called electrophoresis. The DNA bands are transferred onto an autoradiograph (white sheet) for comparison. The babys DNA comes partly from each parent as the fathers sperm fuses with the mothers egg (bottom left). Therefore any of the babys DNA bands, or genetic markers (blue rectangles, top left), which do not match those of its mother must match its father s

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork showcases the intricate procedure involved in a baby's paternity test. The image portrays the scientific process with utmost precision and clarity. At the far left, a sample of DNA is extracted from both the baby and its parents, symbolizing their genetic connection. The mesmerizing genetic code formed by four bases - yellow, blue, green, and red - can be observed at the bottom right corner. Electrophoresis, an essential technique used in DNA analysis, is depicted here as it unveils these distinct genetic markers. This process separates and reveals DNA bands that are then transferred onto an autoradiograph represented by a white sheet for comparison purposes. The significance of this artwork lies in understanding how a baby inherits traits from each parent through fusion between the father's sperm and mother's egg illustrated at the bottom left corner. Consequently, any DNA bands or genetic markers belonging to the baby that do not match those of its mother must align with those of its father. This stunning representation combines elements of artistry with cutting-edge biochemistry to shed light on paternity testing and genetics research. It serves as a testament to our ever-evolving knowledge in bio-technology while emphasizing advancements made possible through meticulous DNA fingerprinting techniques.
