Abstract
The New Zealand DNA Databank was established following the introduction of legislation in August 1996. Using the Second Generation Multiplex (SGM), DNA profiles from over 13,000 convicted offenders and volunteer donors have been completed to the National DNA Database. Since June 1998, DNA profiles from over 1,400 unsolved crimes have been entered onto the Crime Sample Database. Of all unsolved crimes analysed, 33% are linked to individuals and 21% are linked to other unsolved crimes. Several high profile types of case including homicides, sexual offenses and burglaries are amongst those regularly solved.Mesh：
