Cheiloscopic Study among Monozygotic Twins, Non-Twin Brothers and Non-Relative Individuals

Abstract: This study aimed to investigate cheiloscopic patterns among monozygotic twins (MT), non-twin siblings (NTS) and unrelated individuals (UI). The sample consisted of 20 pairs of monozygotic twins (G1), 20 pairs of non-twin siblings (G2) and 20 pairs of unrelated individuals (G3). Lip thickness, commissures and grooves were evaluated and the latter were classified as: I -clear-cut vertical grooves; I' -incomplete vertical grooves; II -branched grooves; III -intersecting; IV -reticular grooves and V -undetermined,… Show more

“…Our Study on biological babies with parent's lip print analysis has shown that lip prints are not equally distributed in families but quite similar and some degree of similarity concerning the predominant grooves pattern is present in relatives. 8 We found no significant difference between biological babies and parents. statistically significant resemblance of lip print pattern were found between father to biological babies (Z-0.4978, P< 0.05) and mother to biological babies (Z-0.49917, P< 0.05) to be.…”
