Abstract

See full text

A sample processing apparatus (102) includes a plurality of processing stations (108) configured to process a sample that includes a DNA sample and an ILS substance carried by a sample carrier. One of the plurality of processing stations includes an electrophoresis processing station. The sample processing apparatus further includes an optical reader (110) that generates a plurality of DNA sample color group signals and an ILS signal based on a result of the electrophoresis processing station. One of the DNA sample color group signals includes at least the locus amelogenin X-peak. The sample processing apparatus further includes an ILS signal validator (112) that validates peaks of the ILS signal as true peaks of the ILS signal only if the amelogenin X-peak of the one of the DNA sample color group signals is found between two peaks of the ILS signal.
