In this study Polish population data as well as efficiency parameters of 12 STR loci included in the Investigator HDplex set were presented. This set contains 9 systems not available in any other commercial multiplexes, ie.: D2S1360, D3S1744, D4S2366, D5S2500, D6S474, D7S1517, D8S1132, D10S2325 and D21S2055. The evaluation was preformed based on DNA samples derived from 303 unrelated individuals living in Lodz region, central part of Poland. The obtained distribution of the genotypes is consistent with the assumptions of the Hardy and Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). It reflects properly genetic structure of the studied population compared with other populations of Europe and the world. It indicates the linkage equilibrium within the pairs of investigated loci, as well as with regard to other syntenic loci. The total value of the power of exclusion (PE) and the random match probability (MP) were respectively 0.99999988 and 5.2 × 10–18. Therefore the polymorphism of examined genetic markers within the Investigator HD-plex multiplex allows for a significant increase of the evidence value. Thus it constitutes an excellent tool for resolving difficult cases in the field of forensic genetics.
