Restriction endonucleases facilitate diagnosis of genetic diseases by revealing restriction fragment length polymorphisms. 

The differences in DNA sequence cited above can result in variations of restriction sites and thus in the length of restriction fragments. An inherited difference in the pattern of restriction (eg, a DNA variation occurring in more than 1% of the general population) is known as a restriction fragment length polymorphism,...

Degradation of contaminants may occur with bacteria that have been isolated from pristine environments without established exposure to the contaminants, and exhibit no dependence on substrate concentration. For example, organisms from a previously unexposed forest soil were able to degrade 2,4,6-trichlorophenol at concentrations up to 5000 ppm, and terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis revealed that at concentrations up to 500 ppm, the bacterial community was unaltered (Sanchez et al. 2004). 

The first human DNA SRM developed by NIST was designed in the late 1980 s to standardize Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) procedures which at that time were very new developments in the application of DNA to forensic analysis.
