Gender specific correlation among fingerprint patterns and blood group in Pakistani population

Journal Title: Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Finger print patterns are extensively used for the study of individuality as most legitimate evidence against criminals. Due to the massive potential of fingerprints as a definite method of identification they can be useful to analyze their correlation with gender. In present study, total 166 Pakistani subjects with (70.83%) of males and (29.1%) of females were selected for this study. Whorls were the most frequent fingerprint pattern (48.21%), while arches were the least common (10.11%). There high frequency of whorls (35.4%) and females have higher incidence of loops (14.2%).The ridge density can also predict the gender as the female had higher ridge density (13±1) than males (12±1).Whorls were predominant in blood group O, A, B and AB in both Rh negative and Rh positive individuals.
