Does not appear to be an established term - only used by the (commercial) "European Center for Genetics and DNA Identification". (Proposed deletion removed by creator.) Delete. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 16:44, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. All the links I found traced back directly to this commercial operation and none were reliable sources. This might qualify for deletion as advertising -- it's not really a dictionary definition, more like a trade-mark that the company is attempting to "word-ify" with the aid of product placements like this one.

Delete. This is not, as claimed by the article, "a new scientific field in genetics". Instead, it is a non-notable trademark. The term has not received significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 20:17, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
