Abstract (EN): The development of a fluorescent multiplex system amplifying four STRs (CD4, F13A01, FES and MBPB) was carried out in order to complement commercially available kits (Identifiler from Applied Biosystems and Powerplex 16 from Promega) mainly for application in complex parentage testing. Here, we report African population data from samples of Mozambique and the Cabinda province of Angola. Population differentiation studies were carried out and, in terms of forensic interest, some parameters are reported and compared with available commercial tetraplex kits.
