In this work we performed a concordance study using four different commercial kits that contain five new short tandem repeat (STR) loci (D1S1656, D2S441, D10S1248, D12S391 and D22S1045), included in the new European Standard Set (ESS). Moreover we determined allele frequencies and statistical parameters of forensic interest in a population sample of 266 unrelated healthy individuals living in the North-East Italy. No significant differences were found in comparison with other European genetic population data. Concordance between the typing results for the four kits was observed in 99.925 % (2658 out of 2660) STR allele calls compared.
