Blood stains

A common domestic use is the removal of rust or blood stains from white materials, e.g. cotton. 

The laundry I distributed had been taken from those who were gassed at Birkenau. I know this because I saw the numbers of the prisoners who used to be at Monowitz and were transported away. The clothes were old and often blood-stained. The clothing was often returned within three hours. 

Postmortem findings include small hemorrhages present in the internal organs, carcasses may be jaundiced, fluid in body cavities that frequently is blood-stained, intestinal inflammation, edematous and hemorrhagic gall bladder, and the liver may be necrotic.

Since I had the big courtyard key with me, I let myself in the back way and did not terrify Luigi with my blood-stains. The stairs were even steeper than usual that night. Needless to say, the Maestro was not pleased to be wakened, but he could not refuse to sew his apprentice together. I put my garments to soak in a bucket, all except the cloak, which I burned in the kitchen fire. Only then was I free to go to bed.

The percutaneous LDso values for 2 4-hour occluded contact on the skin of rabbits were 1.41ml/kg for males and 0.81 for females. Times of death ranged from 45 minutes to 1 day. Signs of toxicity were dilated pupils within 15-30min, convulsions in one animal, and excess, blood-stained saliva. Local signs of inflammation were erythema, edema, and necrosis. In survivors, inflammation persisted for up to 7 days with scab formation by 2 weeks. Instilled in the eye of rabbits, the liquid produced mild conjunctivitis without corneal injury. 

Lobar pneumonia. An acute febrile disease produced by Streptococcus pneumoniae, and marked by inflammation of one or more lobes of the lung, together with consolidation. It is attended with chill, followed by sudden elevation of temperature, dyspnea, rapid breathing, pain in the side, and cough, with blood-stained expectoration. The symptoms abate after 1 week. 

You would never have spent so much money on a car, but you ve been able to obtain it for practically nothing. A few months ago while trolling in the Potomac River for murder victims, you hooked something big underwater. A day later you dived, saw the car, and had a friend tow it to shore. Mr. Duchovny, your boss at the FBI, said that because the vehicle identification numbers had been filed off, there was no way to trace the car. There was no sign of foul play—no blood stains or evidence of any kind except for a wet roll of hundred dollar bills you later found hidden beneath the spare tire. Because the police thought the car worthless after being under the river for a few months, they allowed you to keep it. Little did they anticipate your ingenuity for repair. 

Bioceuticals are supposed to be generally more biodegradable - but is this true even after denaturation, for example, in effluents of low or high pH Blood stains on textiles teach the opposite. 

Fig. I. Analysis of lysed whole blood stained with FITC-anti-CD45 and PE-anti-CD14. (A) Scatter analysis, showing the position of a gate to restrict the analysis to lymphocytes. (B) Gated fluorescence analysis, showing that over 98% of the gated cells are in quadrant 4 (Q4). Monocytes would appear in quadrant 2 (Q2) and nonleukocytes in quadrant 3 (Q3). With suboptimal cell preparations, the position of the lymphocyte scatter gate can be determined by back-gating that is, examining the scatter distribution of cells gated by quadrant 4.

Analysis of samples of whole blood stained with directly labeled antibodies (Section 3.1.) will be used to illustrate cytometric analysis of multiple fluoro-chromes. 

DNA for PCR can also be obtained from blood-stained material using the Chelex method [23]. A small piece of blood-stained material (3 mm2) is taken in a clean microcentrifuge tube and 1 mL of water is added and left as such at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes. Then 200 pL of 5% Chelex suspension in water (Biorad) is added and incubated for 15 minutes at 56°C on a rotatory shaker. After vortexing the tubes, the tubes are placed in a heating block at 98 to 100°C for 8 minutes. The tubes are vortexed again for 10 seconds and centrifuged for 3 minutes at 12,000 x g at room temperature to pellet the Chelex resin. The supernatant can be quantitated for DNA or concentrated by ethanol precipitation. 

Nine kinds of sampling paper/cards were used. FTA Elute (Micro), FTA DMPK-B, FTA DMPK-A, Indicating FTA (pink), FTA Plant, Blood Stain, Protein Saver 903 (previously Guthrie Card or Schleicher Scheull Card in different times), and 31 ET were from Whatman (now GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA) and VWR 237 filter paper from VWR International (West Chester, PA, USA). 

The goal of forensic serology is to individualize blood stains by identifying genetic markers whose population frequencies have been established. 

Forensic scientists examine evidence from crime scenes in an effort to solve crimes. This scientist is removing a piece of blood-stained material gathered at a crime scene for DNA testing.

A protein can be made to withstand higher temperatures by the introduction of additional disulfide bonds. For example, laundry detergents frequently contain enzymes to remove protein and blood stains. By replacing strategically located amino acid residues with cysteines, a modified enzyme results that stays in its active conformation in hotwater.

A 29-year-old woman had a sudden severe occipital headache and photophobia with nausea and vomiting. She had marked nuchal rigidity. Her head CT scan was normal, but the CSF was blood-stained with spectro-photometric evidence of xanthochromia. Cerebral angiography showed beading of vessels in the posterior circulation. However, MRI/MRA did not show any abnormality and the ESR was normal. The patient admitted to having used ecstasy for the first time. Cerebral angiography 2 months later showed that the abnormalities had completely resolved.
