PRINCETON, N.J., Dec. 14/04 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Orchid BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: ORCH - News), a leading worldwide supplier of identity DNA testing services, today announced an agreement to distribute DNAWitness(TM), a forensic service product developed and commercialized by DNAPrint genomics. DNAWitness enables criminal investigators to develop a profile of a suspect's likely general physical attributes using DNA recovered from the crime scene. Insight into these physical attributes is generated by proprietary algorithms in DNAWitness that make it possible to determine the proportions of European, East Asian, Native American and sub-Saharan African ancestry indicated by the suspect's DNA. DNAWitness has already demonstrated its utility as a crime- fighting tool in a number of high profile cases. Financial terms of the one- year, non-exclusive distribution agreement with DNAPrint genomics were not disclosed.
"With Orchid's long-established role as a leading provider of DNA testing services to criminal justice agencies in the U.S. and Europe, DNAWitness is a logical addition to the forensic services toolbox we offer our clients," said Mark Stolorow, executive director of Orchid Cellmark. "Our commitment to scientific innovation in the application of DNA to solving crimes made us among the first to realize the potential of SNPs, or single nucleotide polymorphisms, to address unmet needs in identity testing. We are now pleased to offer our police department customers this unique SNP-based product to help them identify the likely physical characteristics of the perpetrators of the many serious unsolved crimes where the suspect's DNA does not match any of the convicted offender DNA profiles already on file in state and federal databases."
