Neutron activation analysis is an attractive method in many trace element problems, or where the total amount of sample is limited. Many geochemical studies of trace constituents and semi-conductor developments have used the technique, whilst in recent years pollution investigations have provided a new focus. In forensic science small flakes of paint, single hairs and a variety of other small samples have been analysed and identified by activation analysis. In recent years activation analysis has lost further ground to ICP-MS which provides more comprehensive information and is more readily operated. Sensitivity is also comparable in many cases. [Pg.473]

The last few years have shown increasing applications of TOF-SIMS in forensic science. Preliminary studies in the visualization and analysis of fingerprints indicate that the TOF-SIMS method opens new perspectives for the examination of fingermarks, especially in the imaging of fingermarks in various ions. [Pg.281]

Ryan M. Richards was raised near Flint, Michigan. In 1994, he completed both B.A. in chemistry and B.S. in forensic science at Michigan State University. He then spent 2 years as an M.S. student at Central Michigan University working on organometallic chemistry with Professor Bob Howell. He was awarded a Ph D. in 2000 for investigating the properties of metal oxide nanoparticles in the laboratory of Professor Kenneth Klabunde at Kansas State University. In 1999, he was an invited scientist at the Boreskov Institute of Catalysis in Novosibirsk,... [Pg.539]

That much of the human genome has no apparent function is not the same as saying that it has no use. In fact, we have been able to exploit the apparently nonfunctional DNA for several purposes. A good deal of this DNA consists of repeated sequences of bases. There is, for example, a more-or-less 300 base pair sequence termed Alu that is found at more than 500,000 positions in the human genome. The frequency of Alu repeats and their location in the human genome varies from person-to-person and acts as a DNA fingerprint. These and other repeats provide the basis for the use of biotechnology in forensic science. [Pg.186]

Provided a sample of DNA can be obtained, a restriction analysis can be carried ont. A match between the restriction fragments from a sample of DNA left at the scene of a crime and that of a snspect is a valnable tool in forensic science. The usefulness of this techniqne is increased enormously by combining it with the polymerase chain reaction, since the amount of DNA extracted from a very small amount of tissue can be increased enormonsly, providing enough for a restriction analysis. Tissne samples as small as a single cell, a hair, a drop of sahva, a piece of dandruff or a smear of semen are snfflcient to prodnce enough DNA. It has produced a revolution in forensic science. However, caution must be applied to interpretation of the results for... [Pg.57]

Acid phosphatase retains its activity for a long period and hence is useful in forensic science to detect semen but has now been superseded by DNA fingerprinting. The activity in blood was used in the diagnosis of prostatic cancer but was superseded by PSA (prostate specific antigen). [Pg.432]

As a consequence, analytical techniques providing the highest selectivity of detection and adequate sensitivity are generally adopted in forensic science. It is likely owing to this reason that... [Pg.661]

One of the most famous applications in forensic science is the analysis of Napoleon s hair by ICP-MS after mineralization in concentrated nitric acid whereby an arsenic concentration about 40 times higher than normal (about 40p,gg 1) was measured (see Section 9.5). Ingested arsenic is known to be stored in sulfydryl rich tissue, like hair, nails or skin. ETV-ICP-MS combined with isotope dilution has been employed to measure thallium in human scalp hair from a person poisoned by thallium compared to control subjects, whereby several longitudinal concentration gradients for the analyzed segments (length 10 mm) were obtained.28... [Pg.436]
